‘CLASSROOM OF THE FUTURE’

Pupils from RGS The Grange collaborated with Architecture students from Loughborough University to create ‘The Classroom of the Future’ following a series of joint workshops. The Year Six had the opportunity to participate alongside students from the school of Architecture. During a visit to RGS The Grange students and pupils worked together to share ideas on what would be the most important factors in productive learning for a classroom environment. A return visit saw the pupils attend the Loughborough School of Architecture’s design studio to see their ideas brought to life in virtual reality.

The experience enabled the pupils to explore the opportunities available through Architecture. They benefited from developing real-world skills; working in a team as well as giving and receiving constructive feedback. The project bought to life the world of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) engaging the pupils and developing the curriculum.
