Evidence based research confirms that; well designed schools improve educational achievements; natural daylight in classrooms results in faster progression in mathematics/reading tests; improved environmental and space standards improves behaviour in elementary school children; and better designed playing and dining facilities reduces the need for lunchtime supervisory staff. The designer’s task, therefore, is not just to replace outdated stock with new buildings, but to assist in the transformation to new ways of learning.
Often working within strict brief, programming and cost constraints, Todd Architects develops individually tailored solutions with architecture of the highest design quality which mirror the ethos and context of the school, college or university to create flexible, inspiring and supportive learning environments.
