THE PERFECT FIT Choosing the right size classroom furniture is an essential first step in creating an optimal learning environment. The University Furniture Collection provides multiple table legs and chair sizes to fit every classroom need. To determine the ideal table and chair heights for your classroom, keep in mind that the space between the seat height and the table should be 17cm to 21cm. This provides the most desirable amount of space for children to fit their legs under the table and to comfortably rest their elbows.

CHOOSING YOUR TABLES AND CHAIRS When deciding which table height is the right fit for children in the classroom, the main focus should be on the chair’s seat height and the child’s age. This chart offers chair and table recommendations based on these factors. *All measurements are approximate.
