Sound matters in education. Poor classroom acoustics can make it hard for students to concentrate and for teachers to be heard. To support effective learning, experts recommend maintaining internal noise levels below 35 dBA and a reverberation time (T60) of between 0.4 and 0.6 seconds. Meeting these standards typically requires a combination of wall panels, ceiling treatments and soft furnishings.

We can help you find the right mix for your school, with acoustic solutions that are effective, safe and visually appealing.

BEST ACOUSTIC TREATMENTS FOR SCHOOLS

Every space in a school or early learning centre plays a role in how students learn, focus and interact. Effective acoustic treatments help reduce noise, improve clarity and create a more comfortable learning environment.

Below are some of the most common applications and solutions we recommend.

High-Traffic & Common Areas

Install wall and ceiling panels near entryways, corridors, and interactive zones to absorb sound at its source. Reducing background noise in these spaces helps maintain calm and focus throughout the day.
