Safe Spaces in Australia Schools

Did you know that school bathrooms are one of the highest-risk areas for bullying? These private, often unsupervised spaces allow for incidents that may go unnoticed, impacting nearly 25% of Australian students every year. But thoughtful design can change that.

At Duracube, we’re committed to creating safe, private, and inclusive washroom spaces to support a positive school environment. Here’s how design can help reduce bullying and support student well-being:

• Full-Height Partitions: Our Privacy Max cubicles offer floor-to-ceiling privacy, eliminating gaps that can lead to discomfort or potential bullying opportunities.
• Open-Plan Layouts: By relocating handwashing areas to open corridors, schools create natural supervision zones, reducing isolated spaces.
• Gender-Neutral and Unisex Washrooms: Shared areas with individual cubicles discourage loitering and promote inclusivity, while allowing for easier monitoring.
• Acoustics and Ventilation: Sound-dampening materials and proper ventilation ensure privacy and comfort, supporting students’ dignity and well-being.
• Durable, Hygienic Materials: High-performance, low-maintenance finishes, including antimicrobial surfaces, create long-lasting, safe spaces that are easy to clean.

By rethinking school washroom design, we can make a significant impact on student safety, well-being, and inclusivity. Let’s build safer spaces together! Read more about it here: https://lnkd.in/gZxGM5Jy
