A Modern Education

The design of the Christie Academic Centre responds directly to the way in which education is changing. Pupils no longer spend most of their time sitting in rows in front of a teacher: they are required to talk to each other, to carry out their own research, to work together, and to discuss, to debate and to question. The new facilities have created versatile, uplifting learning environments where teacher-led study spaces sit alongside areas where pupils work independently, giving pupils more variety in how they approach their studies. Whether they need a quiet reading room for research, a modern library where they can share ideas and study together, a break-out zone in which to discuss a project with their peers, a stimulating view from the study deck overlooking the Quad or the less formal workspace of the ground floor Willows Café, pupils have countless opportunities to work together, to think together and to be together.
