For many pupils and students, the classroom is their second "home" in their daily school life. It's where students and teachers spend most of their teaching hours, which is why classroom lighting plays a key role when it comes to lighting for schools and education. Lighting solutions in classrooms should not only be sufficient, but also promote concentration, well-being and learning by creating a pleasant environment.

In this section, we dive into how light in classrooms can improve learning and teaching environments - from creating a visually comfortable space to light ring. We also guide you to our recommended products designed to fulfil the requirements of classrooms.

Visual comfort and glare in classrooms

When it comes to classroom lighting, visual comfort is crucial for student learning and concentration. Uncomfortable glare and harsh light reflections can quickly lead to fatigue and distraction, hindering both attention and efficiency. For optimal visual comfort in classrooms, it's important to choose lighting solutions that reduce glare and ensure even light that doesn't create distracting shadows. Indirect lighting, which diffuses light more softly and naturally, is a good choice to avoid direct glare and create a comfortable atmosphere for students.

How-to guide

When it comes to lighting in educational environments, there is no one solution that covers all needs. The function, layout and architecture of the room play an important role in the choice of lighting. Here we present two examples of basic lighting that both create a pleasant lighting environment with high visual comfort.

Both solutions fulfil the high demands placed on educational lighting - but offer different aesthetic and functional options. Whichever solution you choose, the result is a learning environment that enhances concentration, well-being and flexibility in everyday life.

Dialux visualisation - T-LED 60×60 panel (3000 K): A classic choice for schools and classrooms. The built-in LED panels provide an even and pleasant ambient light that ensures good ambient lighting throughout the room - no matter how it's laid out.

Dialux visualisation T-LED Ø545 (3000 K) + wall lighting with LED strip: Here, the classic 60×60 panel is combined with a round cut-out for a more distinctive and design-orientated look. Complemented with concealed wall lighting, it creates a vibrant and cosy atmosphere that promotes both calm and the architectural qualities of the room

Classrooms are living and changing spaces where students need to be able to immerse themselves, collaborate and move freely. Therefore, lighting must not only be efficient and comfortable, it must also be able to support flexible layout and varying teaching methods. Here we present several suitable luminaires for classroom lighting

We create basic lighting with a focus on the learning environment, well-being and flexibility - always customised to the room's function, architecture and students' needs.

Reference: Renovation of Valhøj School - At Teamtronic, we have delivered project-specific basic lighting for classrooms, common areas, corridors and more. A clear design concept with a common thread of linear profiles and circular luminaires was selected.

Reference: Hældagerskolen - At Teamtronic, we delivered a customised lighting solution in connection with the renovation of the school's block 7. The different teaching environments at Hælderagerskolen required flexible and dimmable luminaires, which is why we chose our classic 60×60 panel T-LED.
