Learning is a right, a privilege and a joy to be shared by all. The place of learning, a nursery, a school, college or university should be a secure, safe and comfortable environment conducive to teaching and learning. A child or student in this environment will be more alert, attentive and ready to work and play.

All teaching spaces should use the available daylight as the primary light source. Artificial light contributes 25% of the energy costs for a typical school.

An installed lighting management system can lead to a substantial reduction of these costs. Poor lighting can disadvantage children with weak vision and may adversely stimulate pupils with behavioural problems.

Good educational lighting is not simply about daylight penetration or saving energy, it must sustain the teaching and learning process.
