When pupils can quickly understand information and navigate their surroundings, schools become more welcoming, supportive, and engaging.
At Promote Your School, we create bespoke designs for schools, so we know that learning environments can empower individuals of all ages. Using Widgit symbols in your bespoke designs can help pupils express themselves independently. They can also aid comprehension for all learners, especially those with SEND.
Widgit Symbols provide a shared, consistent visual language to enhance learning, communication, and the overall impact of your Wall Art.
Widgit Symbols provide a shared visual language that benefits all learners. Their structured visuals help pupils:
· Understand instructions and routines quickly
· Reduce anxiety in new environments
· Reinforce concepts across subjects
· Express emotions and needs
Widgit symbols primarily support pupils with learning difficulties, autistic pupils, learners with speech and language impairments and those with social and emotional needs. When combined with our bespoke Wall Art, Widgit Symbols enhance comprehension and turn walls into purposeful communication tools.
Our designs can help you to support your pupils to navigate around school with less stress. They encourage independence and self-expression, and promote well-being and emotional understanding.
Below, we explore practical ways to use Widgit Symbols in Wall Art across different areas of the school. So you can turn walls into the visual environments that reflect your school’s ethos. They will empower you to share your vision in the way that is right for your pupils.
First impressions matter. Your welcome Wall Art sets the tone for visitors and pupils alike. Incorporate Widgit Symbols to ensure that everyone, regardless of reading ability or their first language, can understand essential information and feel included.
Symbol-supported welcome walls can reduce anxiety for new starters. They can also communicate school routines and expectations visually and create an immediate sense of belonging.
By combining our bespoke Wall Art design with Widgit Symbols, schools can create welcoming, visually consistent entrances that are both attractive and functional. A space that communicates clearly from the moment someone steps inside.
School values are abstract ideas that can be interpreted differently by different pupils. Widgit Symbols in Values Wall Art help pupils understand abstract concepts like respect, resilience, and responsibility.
We can tailor designs to your values and the symbols you feel best represent them. And this creates a shared understanding for all learners, and consistently reinforces your school’s ethos.
Added to that, they provide visual cues for assembly and classroom discussions. And offer a consistent, easily recognisable representation that supports pupils in embodying values in daily life. Values walls offer a point of reference for staff, visitors, and pupils alike.
Our bespoke Wall Art solutions ensure that values are displayed in a visually striking, cohesive way. This strengthens comprehension, rather than just presenting text.
Many pupils struggle to express their emotions or explain incidents that have made them feel disregulated. But, Widgit symbols in Wall Art give them a voice and a way to communicate independently.
Use symbols to support big emotions and help pupils express their feelings so they feel calm and regulated. These symbols will prompt pupils to communicate their needs and help them ask for help when they need it.
When you embed Widgit Symbols into Wall Art, you can reduce pupils’ frustration and prevent escalation. In fact, you can empower all learners, not just those with SEND, to self-advocate, understand emotions, and interact positively.
Our design expertise ensures these walls are clear, visually engaging, and intuitively structured. So you can turn communication into a natural part of the environment.
Visually promoting British Values supports understanding and participation. Widgit Symbols can help translate the core British Values ideas of democracy, individual liberty, mutual respect, and tolerance so all learners can recognise them instantly.
A Widgit symbol-supported British Values Wall Art design:
· Reinforces core principles that guide behaviour
· Supports character education and cultural understanding
· Encourages consistent understanding across the school
With our bespoke Wall Art, British Values displays are not only educational but also visually appealing, memorable, and fully accessible to every pupil.
Strategically place Widgit symbols in your Wall Art to help pupils navigate spaces independently. Clear visual clues will reinforce routines and expectations, and reduce anxiety.
In this way, you can create visual environments that:
· Empower independent expression
· Provide a shared, consistent visual language
· Support wellbeing, understanding, and communication
· Reinforce learning and school values
· Improve navigation and reduce stress across the school
In summary, Wall Art and Widigt symbols combined can create spaces that guide, support, and inspire learners, while maintaining clarity, consistency, and visual appeal.
Our expertly designed Wall Art ensures symbols are used effectively and beautifully, transforming spaces into visually striking, educational, and genuinely inclusive environments.
