Lucy Hubery selects wall art, signage and graphic resources that will inspire students and enhance your school environment
School Signs Signage has the potential to be about far more than simple
navigation around a school site. Striking post signs and wall graphics, such as those created by School Signs, can enliven both internal and external settings, and promote a sense of community and shared values. Internally, polished acrylic panels can be used to highlight school values, display work, and greet and direct visitors around the school, while magnetic or dry-wipe interactive reward and motivation boards act as a lively way to unite house teams in healthy competition, and can also help reward and motivate pupils. Externally, School Signs’ post and monolith signs come in a range of colours and sizes, and mobile pavement signs are a great way to promote road safety awareness and assist with traffic management issues. Working in the education sector since 1991, School Signs has invaluable experience of designing and installing signage that meets the expectations and budgets of individual schools.
schoolsigns.co.uk ‘It has been great to work with the team at School Signs
over the past five years – the company is very professional in its approach to design, approval and installation. The signage in each school is not only good-quality, but ensures consistency of branding while protecting the individuality of each school.’ Jason Brown, CFO, Bath and Wells MAT, Somerset

Tim Davies Education If you really want to build a sense of community and
promote shared values then having your pupils create dramatic artwork that can become an integral part of school design could be the answer. Tim Davies Education provides workshops to pupils from nursery to Year 8, enabling them to create large-scale, 3D sculptures and installations for classrooms, common areas and school grounds. Willow and paper are a great choice for fun, colourful and impressive sculptures for interior spaces, while children’s artwork created in screen-printing workshops can be transformed into durable playground displays and signage on laser-cut steel panels. Living willow sculptures encourage pupils to work together to create huge leafy play domes, tunnels and even outdoor classrooms.
timdavieseducation.com ‘Our Year 5s explored screen printing using an aboriginal
theme to create a collaborative textile piece with the visiting artist Tim Davies. They looked at aboriginal dreamtimes, pattern design, symmetry, and drawing and cutting skills, and screen printing. It was wonderful to see the children’s faces as their screen prints appeared.’ Hannah Beare, head of art, Crosfields Preparatory School, Reading (549 pupils)
