Pulteney’s new senior learning centre is an ‘adult space’ characterised by flexible furniture options, shared breakout spaces, ubiquitous technology, and small pods for reflective work. Its aim is to promote multimodal learning and to ‘de-privatise’ the classroom, so that learning becomes more transparent and dynamic. As part of the design, a conscious decision was made to remove traditional hierarchies associated with teacher desks and private offices. Staff have thus been co-located into a communal space.
