AKON's Recommended Classroom Divider Ideas

how to divide class space with curtains

#1 - Large Classroom Curtains

classroom divider on wheels

Today's article will focus on how to divide a classroom. There is a number of great ideas to do so, and the first of them would be AKON’s custom-built partition curtains. Their design can be changed depending on your needs: sizes, layouts, colors, curtain tracks, floor sweeps, and other useful features.

These curtains are a perfect match in a room meant for teaching, learning and inspiring children. By dividing the room into separate, smaller areas the school can better organize space for learning, reading, exams, and playing.

The materials we use to design these curtains are vinyl, poly stretch, and velour; all of which are soft to the touch and safe for use.

Eliminate noise and distracting factors with ease. The soft materials the school divider curtains use will significantly help with creating a safer and quieter environment for all students. That will help them stay on track and prevent losing focus.

Benefits

  • The curtains will help prevent the spread of dust, infections, and other harmful elements
  • Superior temperature and noise control
  • It takes mere minutes to install
  • The curtains are tear-resistant and will remain strong for years to come
  • A fraction of the cost of rigid panel designs
  • The vinyl's slick surface is easy to clean
  • These curtains require almost no maintenance

Noise Control

The curtains we offer are also due-purpose noise insulators. The classroom will remain quieter than usual.

Improved Privacy

Easily setup smaller areas within the classroom for one-on-one tutoring, meetings with parents, and group games

Dust Control

Our curtains and screens will prevent dust buildup and thus ensure a safer environment for the students and teachers.

Inexpensive

If a divider solution is needed, fixed walls would be very costly and permanent unlike our custom portable curtains.

#2 - Classroom Portable Partitions And Screens

portable screens for schools

Every teacher will admit there is at least one troublesome distraction in their class. In order to reduce distractions and noise, dividing the classroom into smaller spaces could do the tricks, and nothing beats these portable screens. By utilizing these room dividers, you can make areas for autonomous work stations, relaxation, or sensory breaks.

Naturally, our classroom screens are extremely though as well! They come with 18-gauge stainless steel, rust-resistant black enamel-finish paint, and square tube frames. They can be used in gymnasiums as well. As a result, they are very durable and hurling soccer balls can damage them. The best part is their layout. Multiple screens can be connected to form unique layouts.

We at AKON can design such classroom divider screens. They are portable, easy to transport, and come in many colors. They are freestanding too! There is no need for any curtain track or hardware; all you need to do is position them where they are needed. Such screens can also be self-produced as shown in the video below.

#3 - Fabric Curtains

Another great classroom divider idea would be to use freestanding fabric curtains. What makes them different than our first suggestion is they have no need for a curtain mount, and their material is more suited for privacy. Nonetheless, these curtain partitions are just as good at separating and re-organizing space.

Their portability is key as the school can use them to divide large classrooms for exams, and then store them back afterwards. Flexible and adaptable in any setting, the lightweight and strong panels are simple to move around and store.

The fabric curtains are thus ideal for designating specific sections for various activities in communal learning environments like classrooms, playrooms, or daycare facilities.

Overall, the portable fabric curtains provids a great way to give kids a secure and orderly learning environment that is also visually appealing.

  • Finished edges for a clean and crisp appearance
  • Lightweight and washable
  • A mere 30% of the cost of traditional, rigid walls while being as strong
  • The vinyl slick surface is easy to clean + almost no maintenance needed
  • Tear-resistant & abrasion-resistant

#4 - Book Shelves

classroom book shelves dividers

An amazing idea would be the use of bookshelves as dividers. Many classrooms have bookshelves to begin with, so using them as dividers would be a fun idea.

While portability is nowhere near as good as the previous suggestions, bookshelves can still be re-positioned around the classroom. You can re-organize the shelves by book subjects and thus make it easier for students to locate the specific books they need. By doing so, any classroom can turn into a cozy, miniature library.

The video below discusses twelve different shelve types, all of which have unique designs.

Helpful Video

Benefits

  • Easy-to-access books and notebooks
  • Can be further decorated by the students
  • Bookshelves are non-permanent classroom dividers and could be repositioned if needed
  • Greatly reduce noise and distractions

#5 - Whiteboards Aa Classroom Dividers

whiteboard classroom divider ideas

Whiteboards could be amazing school and classroom dividers. The addition of whiteboards as part of partitions is a practical and popular customization. These portable whiteboards elevate a makeshift classroom by giving teachers and students a tool for instruction, brainstorming, and collaboration.

With the right dividers, large open-space classrooms can quickly and easily be converted into a technology hub, a group-learning space, or a one-to-one student and instructor area with the use of the appropriate walls. Whiteboards are a natural classroom divider, as they not only help manage the space, but is a vital part of education as well.

Quick Roll Up Access

Benefits

  • Easy and portable partition solution
  • You can have two whiteboards on opposite sides and thus teach two groups of students in one room
  • Fully utilizes large classroom space
  • Easily divide the classroom into areas for group learning, meetings with parents, or one-to-one tutoring

#6 - Classroom Data Walls As Dividers

data wall classroom separation ideas

Data walls are incredible tools. Teachers use them to track the achievements of each student, keep notes during projects, and add sticky notes. Simply repositioning them and using these walls as dividers could save the school money and improve floor space management.

This solution is on par with all the rest and uses existing equipment as a classroom divider.

This is true especially for elementary schools. In a room where extra space and resources are always of use, data wall dividers do wonders.

Teachers can utilize the physical space they already have to the fullest extent at a fraction of the cost of renovation and with the variety that fixed classroom furniture fails to provide by using existing data walls as classroom partitions.

Benefits

  • Easy and portable partition solution
  • You can have two data walls on opposite sides and thus use existing room space more efficiently
  • Easily divide the classroom into areas for group learning, meetings with parents, or one-to-one tutoring
  • Keep track of student achievements and project data by positioning the walls in different locations across the room

Testimonials

"AKON had the quality that was lacking with our previous industrial curtain supplier. We run a fortune 500 company that relies on zero downtime. The AKON industrial curtain system just lasts longer and is made of better materials. I informed purchasing that if its not from AKON, then we don't want it!" - Fred Dixon 

"The AKON wash bay curtains look great! No one was as helpful or as knowledgeable as your staff and that was a big deciding factor for us. When the wash bay curtains arrived the installation was flawless. We now have a wash bay curtain that we can be proud of and that will last for many years." - Jackie McGarb

"THE BEST!!! Hands Down!!. The curtains have stronger grommets and the vinyl is the best quality that we have seen. The service is also top notch and we have answers to our questions instantly. You can tell this is a well run company and they have taken care of all the projects that we have thrown at them." - Mike Richards
