With over 75 years’ experience in creating better learning and working spaces, we know the importance of daylight, especially in a learning environment. Research has shown that children taught in a bright and ventilated space can show a 15%* improvement in their performance.
Trumpington Community College
As the first new secondary school in Cambridge for 50 years, it was vital that Trumpington could demonstrate the benefits that new school design can bring to learning outcomes.
Hight levels of natural daylight, whilst being compact yet airy, are the hallmarks of the new school, featuring 245 VELUX Modular Skylights to create spaces that are highly conducive to learning.
"At Trumpington Community College we were looking for a glazing solution that provided a sense of light and space while minimising glare in our open learning areas. The VELUX Modular Skylights system that has been installed has helped us create an exceptional working environment."
Andrew Hutchinson OBE
Executive Principal, Parkside Federation Academies
