Principles
- The visual appearance of the school contributes to its
image and ethos
- The displays in the public areas reflect the life, work
and values of our school
- The displays are intended to be educative, informative
and visually stimulating
- The displays are intended to have a positive effect on
pupils’ interest and motivation
Considerations

learning topics
- Displays are labelled in order to identify the work by
name and class
- Displays are well-maintained, and are removed when they
have served their purpose

arts is responsible for organising thematic displays in public areas, e.g.
at Christmas, Easter
- Special duties teacher with responsibility for
handwriting organises display of prize-winning entries
- Class teachers are responsible for display areas
immediately outside their class rooms
Displays in Classrooms
All displays are designed and produced on the general
understanding that they serve an educative and a visually stimulating purpose
- They may show exemplary work of a particular kind
- They may show the entire range of responses to a common
starting point, irrespective of their nature and quality
- They may be intended to reward a pupil or pupils for
outstanding effort and progress
- They may act as teaching and learning aids
