MODULAR BUILDINGS AND LIGHTING CONTROLS ARE A CLASS ACT

摘要

There were 66,000 more children in the nation's schools in June 2018, compared to the same point in the year prior. The increase is undoubtedly influencing learning. A BBC Yorkshire investigation quoted 13 year old Silas Ennis saying that, "It's difficult to learn because there's so many people around you, so you're not focusing as much on the lesson."The Department for Education last year revealed statistics that the average secondary school class size is 21.2 pupils, up from 20.8 in 2017. The vast majority of classes are between one and 30 students, but there is also data that shows 11.5 per cent of students were in classes of 31-35, and 0.6 per cent were in classes with 36 students or more.Funds are clearly the issue. While additional funding might not magically appear any time soon, there is the prospect that money, more classrooms and learning facilities can be made through a growing source: modular buildings and modular lighting controls.
