The Benefits of Using LED Lighting in Schools

The right lighting in a school setting is really important to get right since lighting effects humans moods and emotions.

Studies have proven that children learn better  classrooms that are brightly lit and their overall health is positively impacted by classrooms that incorporate natural light.

For a long time, fluorescent lights have been the default lighting used in classrooms.

However, there are now far better options and fluorescent lighting has shown to be counterproductive to students, it can cause hyperactivity, and anxiety among children.

The colour that comes from the bulbs leads to poor learning performances, especially after being in their presence for prolonged periods of time.

So what is the solution?

LED Lighting!

The light emitted from LED’s is more calming to students which allows them to be more focused. They also do not flicker which is an advantage for any student or teacher, but especially students in special education classrooms.

LED lights also last much longer so they are a lot more convenient for teachers and use much less energy than fluorescent lights.

Not only are LED’s far better for our mental wellbeing they will also save you a lot of money in energy compared with regular lighting. Money that can be better spent elsewhere!

Here at NSN Electrical we can provide you with a survey that will demonstrate how LED will give you a return on investment and improve the aesthetic of your school.

Here's what our customers say:

'Joss and his team were pulled late into our project because it had confounded others, so his timeline was horrifyingly short. NSN performed a fresh assessment, quickly offered options, quotes, and a timeline, and had their team on the project within a week. Joss kept us informed and was unflaggingly generous of his time and expertise.'

Frequently asked questions

Can electrician sign off their own work?

Only if they are affiliated with an electrical representing body. Here at NSN Electrical we have a 20years affiliation with NAPIT – One of the top electrical governing bodies.

Can I change my light switch to a dimmer switch?

This depends on your current lighting, if it is dimmable or not.

We may have to also assess if the box behind the switch is deep enough to take a dimmer switch, as a dimmer switch recesses further into the wall than a standard switch.

We have solutions for all the above and we would be more than happy to find a solution for you.
