How it improves well-being and learning
Did you know that it has been proven that students have better concentration when surrounded by nature and green infrastructure? In fact, the London Living Roofs and Walls Report (2019) states that viewing green infrastructure can improve concentration levels by 6% whilst viewing bare concrete can reduce concentration levels by 8%. It is much better for not just the students, but the staff’s wellbeing and mental health, along with the health of the insects that create new homes and habitats inside the walls.
