Abbots Farm Infant School, Warwickshire
The problem: Classrooms are acoustically demanding spaces. Hard surfaces cause excessive reverberation, making it difficult for young pupils to hear their teachers clearly and for teachers to be heard without raising their voices.
Our solution
Resonics specified and installed a combination of Autex Quietspace ceiling rafts and wall panels, chosen for their strong acoustic performance and suitability for busy school environments:
- Ceiling rafts – installed to absorb sound across the largest surface area in the classroom, significantly reducing reverberation time.
- Wall panels – positioned to tackle reflected noise at ear level, helping to improve speech clarity.
- Durable, low-maintenance materials – Autex Quietspace is built to withstand daily use in busy school environments.
- Unobtrusive design – effective acoustic performance without disrupting the classroom environment.
The Outcome
The treated classroom will significantly reduce background noise, giving pupils a clearer, calmer environment to listen and learn in. Teachers can speak at a natural volume and be heard throughout the room, reducing vocal strain.
For a space where every child needs the best possible chance to hear, focus, and thrive, the improvement in day-to-day comfort and communication will make a real difference to how the classroom functions.
