Wavell School - 'Classroom of the Future', Farnborough, England

Product - Sound Field System comprising:
2 x CS-1000 + Infrared Wireless Microphone System

Application:
Challenging current thinking on the design of new school buildings, 'Classrooms of the Future' are providing and testing a new and dynamic vision of how subsequent schools should be designed.

In response to collective ideas for future major design drivers, the resulting focus is on creating innovative learning environments that are both imaginative and stimulating, with the aim of inspiring children to greater achievements.

Wavell School is one of many to have harnessed best practice from this new initiative and produced it's own inspiring learning space. Having all the latest developments in ICT such as Teleconferencing, Interactive Whiteboards and Sound Field, their new futuristic classroom forms a flexible and adaptable teaching aid that can be used for both school and the broader community.

Discreetly housing the i-ceilings sound system, Armstrong's Dune ceiling exactly matches i-ceilings and provides perfect placement for audio in classrooms, enabling the area to be used as intended. With the ability to reorganise the space to the needs of the lesson, knowing that teachers will not be restricted by 'fixed' equipment, the Sound Field System provides flexibility and practicality in both traditional and dynamic classrooms.

With audio systems being used on the majority of interactive white boards to transmit multimedia, Sound Field is simply integrated into the existing system using wireless microphones and receivers.
