Education Supplies for Effective Reading and Organisaton

Think of education supplies and what springs to mind? Desks and books and lesson charts, no doubt. These are at the heart of today's classrooms but other supplies such as library furniture and locker room furniture are also vitally important to the modern school.

The library is one of the most important rooms in a school. It's a place where children learn the reading and independent learning habits that will enrich their lives for years to come. This means comfortable and efficient library furniture is a must to allow students to find the books and study materials they want and then read and study with comfort and ease.

Bookcases and shelving are the staples of libraries and they come in a variety of sizes and forms. You can get them in metal and wood in a range of sizes and heights to fit rooms of any size. Wooden library shelves in beech, oak or maple are hardy and especially attractive.

Young readers will appreciate book displays with clear pockets for storage and display. Low enough for young pupils to access easily, these are crafted from sturdy plastic in a range of vibrant colours.

Other than bookcases, library tables need to be solid and durable. You can do no better than buy them crafted from oak or teak for a lifetime of use. Other than the standard rectangular shapes, you can get library tables in kidney, circular and wedge shapes.

Wedge tables offer you the ultimate flexibility for any environment. Crafted from duroform PU, you can get them in a range of breezy colours. Round library tables are useful in that they allow students to sit in groups for discussions and other activities.

Other essential items of library furniture include reading corners and study carrels.

Reading corners are groups of tables and chairs which can be arranged for groups of students to read in comfort. These items come in many forms to suit different ages. Examples are bean bags, eco tech cushions, standard armchairs and sofas and low chairs with plump comfy cushions, perfect for toddlers to read in comfort.

Baggies chairs are especially popular with pre-school or primary aged children. These brightly coloured furniture items are ideal for both reading corners and story time areas as they sit both children and adults. They're made from reinforced PVC for durability and ease of cleaning. More flexible seating arrangements can be made using small circular tables and pouffes.

For more formal reading and note taking, study carrels are ideal; they take the form of desks with partitions on either side for privacy and to aid concentration.

Study carrels feature a height adjustment facility making them suitable for a wide range of ages. Ergonomically designed for student comfort, they feature cable port management at the back for convenient cable access.

Other important education supplies are those which help keep things neat, tidy and organised. Examples are cloakroom storage units including such items as lockers, the locker room bench and various trolleys to hold personal items.

Forget the drab lockers of old; today's items come in a range of inspiring colours such as bright reds and glowing yellows. They also come in a wide range of shapes and sizes to suit any environment and age group.

Cube lockers are very popular. Welded and riveted for strength and durability, they can be stacked on top of each other for versatile arrangements. Plus they're coated with anti-bacterial powder coating solution for hygiene. You can also get them in low height, and with special formats for students with disabilities. Also available are a full range of wood and metal lockers containing from two to six doors.

The locker room bench comes in single and double sizes. You can get them in a range of colours to match your locker room walls and the lockers themselves. They're perfect to help pupils prepare for the school day and special classes such as PE and drama. Especially popular are benches with clear bin units underneath that allow students to store everything from shoes to games to classroom accessories.
