Why are break rooms essential to school wellbeing?
Break rooms provide an important place of escape for teaching staff where they can relax and recharge during the school day. It’s a space where teachers and assistants can eat and drink, relaxing in a welcoming environment that can help to boost morale and job satisfaction.
Who can lead a break room makeover?
A break room makeover is usually led by a group of people, with headteachers, teaching staff and administrators all involved at some level. It should be a collaborative project that seeks feedback from staff who will use the space to ensure the changes made achieve the required objectives.
Where to get supplies and furnishings
There are lots of places to get supplies and furnishings for a break room makeover or refurbishment. However, it is important to use a reputable school furniture supplier that has experience working with schools and can offer specialist advice and guidance for the project. This is an area of expertise for the Spaceist team who work with schools of all age groups, helping them transform staff rooms and break rooms.
