LEARNING SPACES

Learning spaces at Richmond View School are far from traditional and are created to facilitate creative approaches to teaching and learning. Rooms are light, airy and warm, promoting group work, personalised learning opportunities and individualised programmes catering to the diverse needs of learners.

Core principles for learning spaces

Our learning space design is based on a number of principles that research has proven to be essential features of positive learning spaces.  As our campus is constantly changing, new possibilities are emerging.

Principles for learning spaces:

• provide a professional and ‘real life’ environment
• cater for a diverse variety of users
• are multipurpose, expected to be changed/adapted in the future
• facilitate use of technology
• foster positive relationships and community​
• allow for furniture to be moved around and re-configured
• accommodate changing technology and a multitude of devices

Our spaces

Every classroom has the capability for learning to occur in solitary, small group, larger group and whole class contexts. Spaces are utilised to complement the task being undertaken. Small focus rooms, provide spaces for students to ​work independently or in small groups in a inspiring environment.

Beyond the classrooms and outdoor learning spaces, we also have a state-of-the-art auditorium, hall and library.​
