GOOD NEWS LUTHERAN SCHOOL

Middle Park, QLD

Good News has always been forward-thinking in its approach to education, but it recently adopted agile learning spaces and project-based learning to cater for different learning styles and needs. A variety of desk arrangements, including standing desks, ‘coffee table’ work spaces and outdoor learning areas, allows students to choose where they sit for different learning opportunities. The more active students have found great benefit from standing to work, leading to higher engagement and deeper learning. The spaces also provide greater opportunity for students to develop collaborative skills such as communication and tolerance.
