Digital signage for educational institutions

Digital signage for educational institutions

In March 2020, schools, nurseries and colleges in the United Kingdom were shut down in response to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. By 20 March, all schools in the UK had closed to all children except those of key workers and children considered vulnerable.

The majority of these educational establishments have reopened but the spread of disease remains a concern. As a result, educational establishments needed a way of communicating safety warnings, manage student traffic flow and react to changing regulations in a quick and effective manner.

Although some considered using printed signage to handle the task, it’s was an ineffective and costly way to keep up with constantly changing guidelines. Instead, what was required was a communication solution that can be updated in real-time and respond automatically to any issues that might arise.

Signage located near entrances can convey information about mask requirements, one way systems, social distancing guidelines and other policies. If policies change, the network can be updated in real-time to reflect those changes. In addition, that information can be pushed out to staff via email and signage in break or staff rooms and employee-only areas can help communicate updates, therefore preventing students and employees from exposure to unnecessary risks. In addition to signage near entrances, wayfinding signage can direct students, staff and visitors to the best route to their destination, minimising crowding.
