We are considering the power of space in ensuring an Inclusive Learning Environment… how can the spaces we design and develop ensure that all learners feel the sense of belonging that is intrinsic to Inclusion?

The power of asking learners this simple question should not be underestimated… ‘how do you want this space to feel?’… this can provide an accessible in-road to inclusive pupil participatory design. #joy #inclusion #agilelearning #pupilvoice

Tomorrow in Gather Round we are going to ask our learners and staff what we could do to this space to create The Burrow… there will be a Forms link for parents/carers too! What do you think? Some learners find the start of the school day tricky and this space will help…

We are so proud of our children: urban designers and making a direct positive impact on the community!
Pupils at Carrick Knowe Corstorphine primaries turned urban designers to make their school streets safer and more friendly. We’re so excited to unveil their work as part of our Corstorphine Connections project. Well done all – fantastic ideas. 👏🏼 edinburgh.gov.uk/cycling-wal…

On Monday the Scottish Alliance participated in Workshop 3 of the @IleseProject. We discussed how many of the gaps identified within learning environment research are consistent across the globe and Scotland's distinct priorities in participatory design & professional learning

Tomorrow some of our Parent Council members are coming together for a Rapid Action Planning meeting. We will be thinking about some key elements of our School Renewal Plan. One project is developing a Learning Space in our old First Aid room… how would you like the room to feel?

When the weather is good make the most of using the outdoor learning environment like @corstorphineps here. What spaces within your school grounds and local area can you use as an alternative to the classroom?
A beautiful morning for sketching in the park.

It was lovely to visit @VicElc22 yesterday and see the space in use. I love returning to see how space evolves and how it's set up and used. #earlyyears #interiordesign @FutureSchoolsEd

Future #interiordesigner look at this amazing P7's design of a learning space @FutureSchoolsEd ✏️
Our House Captains have been thinking about ways to show the things we are working on this year and they asked a very talented P7 to show their ideas through art… here are the first two images she has created… ‘inclusive learning spaces’ and ‘bringing learning alive’…
