02.07.2008

Earlier this year, STB hosted two graphic design teachers from King Edward VII School as part of
Leicestershire Education Business Company’s Teacher Placement Programme.


Darren Seymour, Design Director here at STB, said, “ Working with schools helps inject the ‘real world’ of design
into the classroom. It’s about building on potential and encouraging future designers.”

Teacher, Louise Wright, commented, “ We were able to get ideas from STB for future projects and gain a better
understanding of professional skills that we could be teaching students. I have been able to feed back to the
students my experience and findings from the day, this has inspired them, as they can see what they do in school
is a valid part of design.”

Colleague, Liz Maher, said, “ It has been a really useful day-enabling us to create new projects for the students,
based on real life scenarios and for our own professional development, to see the subject we teach in action
has been invaluable.”
