Active school furniture for engaged students and teachers

Pupils fidgeting in their chairs, or teachers suffering from back or neck pain after a long day at school? Sound familiar? Sitting still may sound relaxing, but in practice it often takes energy and concentration. Active school furniture, such as sit-stand desks, desk bikes and exercise stools, can change that. More movement and variety in the classroom makes pupils more energetic, alert and motivated. Teachers also benefit: an active working day feels more pleasant and productive. Worktrainer shows that school furniture can also be fun, active and energetic.

Sit-stand desks for classrooms

A sit-stand table makes it easy to alternate between sitting and standing. Pupils can expend their energy, stay focused for longer and experience fewer physical complaints. For teachers, this means less fatigue and more dynamism in the classroom.

At Worktrainer, you will find various models, from compact adjustable school tables for smaller classrooms to robust, height-adjustable tables for group work. There are also tables that are electrically adjustable, so that switching between sitting and standing is literally done at the touch of a button. This allows you to create a healthy and modern learning environment in which movement is a matter of course.

Our best-selling active school furniture solutions – At Worktrainer, you’ll find compact school furniture paired with fun movement tools. The perfect way to create active islands in the classroom!

Deskbikes and balance stools in the classroom

Active learning can also be fun. A desk bike in the classroom allows pupils to complete assignments or attend a presentation while cycling. Active hockers ensure that pupils continue to move automatically, activating their muscles and making them less prone to distraction. 

The effect of an active classroom? Pupils who would otherwise become restless use their energy positively and are more focused. These products fit into any type of classroom and make learning more dynamic. From primary school to college: active furniture gives school days and teaching a healthy boost.

Complete school interior design: Active learning is the main focus

A good learning environment does not consist of a single school table, but rather a well-considered combination of school interior. That is why Worktrainer helps schools with a complete interior design that focuses on active learning. Think of a combination of sit-stand tables, wobble stools and Deskbikes, supplemented with ergonomic school furniture that encourages movement without being disruptive.

Research shows that prolonged sitting leads to reduced concentration and lower performance. By furnishing the classroom with furniture that makes movement natural, you can prevent this problem. Teachers also benefit: a dynamic learning environment reduces physical complaints and increases job satisfaction. Whether you want to renovate a single classroom or redesign the entire school, Worktrainer offers practical and inspiring solutions that can be implemented immediately.

Who is our school furniture intended for?

Active school furniture is suitable for every stage of education.

Primary school and after-school care: children learn through play, but often sit still for too long. That is why we also have school furniture for preschoolers. With wobble stools and sit-stand tables, the class stays active while maintaining calm and focus.
Secondary school: long lessons and lots of tests require concentration. With sit-stand tables and desk bikes, pupils can expend their energy more effectively and maintain their attention for longer.
Colleges and universities: students spend a lot of time in lectures and on group projects. Ergonomic furniture helps prevent fatigue and contributes to vitality during long study days.

Whatever type of school you work at, there is always a solution that suits both students and teachers. Worktrainer helps you find customised solutions, so that every classroom becomes a place where active learning is the norm.

Active Learning: Say Goodbye to Sitting Still!

Sitting still is something we’re taught from a young age, especially at school. But sitting still all day? Not great for your body or your brain! Luckily, there’s the “move classroom.” That means listening to presentations while cycling, learning Greek geography while standing, and so much more. In short: kids get up from their desks and stay active while they learn.

Get the class moving and see the difference

Active learning means better performance! With sit-stand desks and dynamic school furniture, it’s easy to get your classroom moving. And the results speak for themselves. After just 2 years of active learning, students show up to 5 months of additional learning progress! Researchers explain that movement releases adrenaline in the brain, helping children absorb information more effectively.

More focus through physical activity in the classroom

Movement during class? A great idea, according to research by UMC Groningen and the University of Groningen. The researchers spent several years studying the effects of physical activity during lessons. Their conclusion: movement helps children concentrate better on their tasks and improves their ability to retain what they’re learning.

The Movement Master visits your school.

Our “Movement Master” visits your school to inspire more activity in the classroom. During the visit, children can try out the products themselves and experience how active learning can boost their concentration and energy. Get in touch to schedule a visit and discover the benefits of an activity-friendly school together.
