My ideal classroom would have no bright colours and lots of natural light. It would have a single line of symmetrical windows, six feet off the ground, looking out to sky and birds. The space itself would be cosy, and the desks would be arranged in a horseshoe, not a circle. I’d sit in the middle, at the bottom of the curve, so I could place everyone but not have to look straight at them. There would be nobody behind me – I need to know what’s happening all around. On the walls, there should be lots of inspirational quotes or cool facts.
