Educational Soft Seating

The soft seating range

The range spans stools, cubes, benches, modular units and sofas in bright, engaging colours that can be arranged and rearranged to suit the activity. Wipe-clean, hard-wearing upholstery copes with spills, snacks and constant use, while foam that holds its shape keeps seating supportive over years of service. Modular pieces can be combined into circles, rows or quiet nooks, giving teachers simple ways to reconfigure a room for storytime, group work or independent reading.

Building better learning spaces

Comfortable, well-designed seating does more than fill a corner. It encourages reading for pleasure, gives pupils calmer spaces to regulate and focus, and helps break the classroom out of rigid rows. Durable, easy-clean materials keep maintenance low and hygiene high – important in shared, high-traffic spaces. Because the pieces are lightweight and free-standing, pupils and staff can move them safely to create circles for group discussion or spread them out for calmer, individual reading time.
