You can enhance your school’s reception area, main entrance, school office and the front of your building to make a positive first impression.
You don’t need to invest in a huge project or cover multiple areas of your school. In fact, even a single feature wall will make a big difference!
Here are 5 ideas to inspire and get you started…
A welcome wall in your school entrance sets the tone from the moment families and visitors arrive. Featuring your school’s name, motto and values gives an instant sense of your ethos and identity.
For example, at Kents Hill, the design combines the school’s brand and logo with positive imagery linked to the local community. The result is a vibrant, colourful backdrop that helps families feel at ease as soon as they step inside.
Practical fixtures such as doors, cupboards and windows can also be incorporated into the design. This not only enhances the overall look, but in the case of windows, can provide an additional safeguarding layer.
Because we print on premium materials, your welcome wall will stay looking its best for years to come. In fact, one school told us:
“Nine years later, our Wall Art still looks as good as it did on the day it was installed.” – St Joseph’s Primary School
A strong brand gives students, staff, and parents a sense of identity and pride and helps your school stand . A branded reception area looks professional and offers a warm welcome to anyone who enters your school. Feature your logo, colours and school name in a bold branded design to clearly communicate your school’s unique offering to visitors, at a glance.
You can include relevant images of the local area, landmarks, alumni or current pupils and their achievements to communicate more about your school. A skyline backdrop will add a personal touch to your reception area and celebrate your school’s community and roots.
Go beyond the walls to include the reception desk or office which is likely a central hub of your school. With a few simple visual enhancements, this space will impress visitors and have a real impact.
“The Wall Art has really transformed the look of our reception area” – The Endeavour School
Not all welcome wall designs need to be branded. You might instead opt for a simple nature design to create a calm welcome area.
Nature designs improve wellbeing and offer a serene welcome for people of all ages;
Include a positive quote to raise morale and lift spirits. Your backdrop can feature a nature scene that is personal to your school and local area . Whether you are based near a woodland, have links to the sea, or just want pupils and visitors to escape into a rainforest, mountains or river themed welcome wall, we can create a design to your unique preferences.
Your welcome doesn’t have to start inside the building. Outdoor walls can be transformed into friendly, inviting spaces with durable external Wall Art.
Friendly and reassuring welcome wall designs will immediately put younger pupils (and their parents) at ease as come to school each day. And it will remind older pupils that they’re entering a safe and nurturing environment.
Simple images and a calm, nature inspired backdrop are ideal for settling pupils’ minds and emotions as they arrive for school. Pupils can enter your building feeling relaxed and regulated – ready to learn! Visitors will step through your doors with a smile, reassured by the welcoming Wall Art that makes them feel at ease and the confidence that know they’re in the right place.
If you don’t have an obvious welcome area in your school, don’t worry — we can transform almost any space into a welcoming feature like this cleverly designed classroom that sits beside the pathway into school.
Using colour, images and positive messages ensures your school feels warm, welcoming and inclusive for all. We can help you select a colour palette that feels inviting, and complements your school’s existing branding, so it all ties together.
Refer to local landmarks, community heroes, or your school’s own history, within your designs to create a personalised welcome.
