Providing the best opportunities for success.

“It could not have been better timing”  says Lana Read, who took up the reins as Macgregor’s Principal just as the rapidly expanding school was about to embark on a major construction project. Coming on board at the design phase allowed her to align the school’s pedagogy with its vision and strategy for the future – to encourage student group collaboration.  This would require not only an environment to support this, but the teachers to adapt to a new team-teaching model.

When it came to choosing furniture, Furnware were the preferred choice due to the product design and range on offer. The consultation process was invaluable - Ms Read and her team were challenged to think more deeply about what they wanted in their learning spaces and their envisaged purpose. “We found this a critical part of the process”, notes Lana, as it provided the opportunity for the team to discuss the school’s vision with Furnware and to take findings back to executive and teaching staff for input, ensuring everyone was on the same page.
