Elevating Learning Environments with Expert Lighting Solutions
In the education sector, adequate lighting is not just a requirement—it’s a catalyst for effective learning. At Connected Light, we understand that each educational space from classrooms to libraries, demands unique lighting solutions that enhance concentration, ensure safety, and create a welcoming environment for students and staff alike. Our tailored lighting designs consider the diverse activities and needs of educational facilities, ensuring optimal light for every task.

Connected Light's Experience and Expertise
With over 40 years of experience, Connected Light has illuminated numerous educational environments, providing modern, efficient, and flexible lighting solutions that adapt to the dynamic nature of educational settings. Our projects range from primary schools to prestigious universities, each designed to enhance learning outcomes and reduce operational costs.
Challenges in the Education Sector
Educational faculties face specific lighting challenges such as ensuring light levels are correct for each space, reducing glare, and accommodating various different learning activities. Additionally, the longevity and maintenance of lighting systems are crucial to minimise disruptions and ensure continuous operations.
Also, due to new regulations put in place from February 1st, 2024, the sale of fluorescent lamps and certain other types has been banned in Great Britain, following EU regulations. This is mainly because these lamps contain mercury, a hazardous material, and are much less efficient than LEDs.
Connected Light have been supporting Estates and Life Cycle Managers to overcome this with our range of LED upgrade design services for the Educational Sector.

At Connected Light, we offer comprehensive lighting solutions tailored to the unique needs of educational facilities:
Energy-efficient LED upgrades that significantly reduce maintenance and energy costs.
