Low-cost desk divider
Protective classroom dividers for pandemics
Louise Stephenson has come up with an innovative solution to the problem of keeping staff and pupils safe from possible infection. Worried about how her 11-year-old son Harry would be able to keep to social distancing once he was back in the classroom, she designed a low-cost desk divider, which comes in a range of designs and colours, with a Perspex window which still allows the child to see out into the classroom while being protected. Now the business is planning to work with schools and create bespoke designs for the dividers, so they can be personalised with specific information or a school logo. And because they are being made out of Correx – a durable board – they can also be wiped clean and are easily packed away or disposed of.
