Boards for schools and nurseries

This section brings together boards for schools and nurseries — institutions where documents on the wall are updated often and free space is limited. There are five design solutions: a set of fixed portrait plates, a single board with pockets, a school set of several shaped boards, a nursery board on keyhole hangers and a three-dimensional shaped board with layered overlays.

Production time across the whole range is 3-7 days.

A4 and A5 pockets hold the changeable content

Most series in this section have clear plastic pockets — from 4 on a compact nursery board to 18 on a school set. The pocket lies flat against the board, the document is fully visible and can be changed without taking the board off the wall. Pockets are A4 and A5, and orientation can be mixed within a series.

When the content does not change

The set of portrait plates works differently: six plates with names and dates of birth and death in a decorative frame are printed once and have no pockets — it is a permanent information row, not a working notice board. The set comes in two sizes — 400×300 and 594×420 mm per plate.

One board or a set of several

Some series are a single board: the "Information corner" at 900×870 mm and two nursery boards at 1050-1100×780 mm. Others are assembled from several shaped boards into one wall set — from three boards at 2200×880 mm to eight boards at 3640×1500 mm. The difference is not just size: a set gives you separate themed zones on one wall rather than a single continuous area.

Printing or film appliqué

Six series out of seven are decorated with full-colour printing at 1440 dpi — the palette is unlimited, and both raster and vector artwork are suitable. File requirements are covered in the article on print-ready artwork.

The 3D shaped board has a second application option — an appliqué of cut Oracal 641 film, 60 colours, which requires vector artwork only. The difference between vector and raster is explained in the article vector or raster graphics.

Material, mounting and lamination

Most series are based on 3-4 mm PVC, and you can choose the exact thickness when ordering. Keyhole hanger mounting is specified for the two nursery boards. The printed image can be laminated — this option is available as a separate choice within the product page rather than as a separate series.

If a school or nursery needs to display more changing information than pockets can hold, see the Flip display systems section — there documents are flipped through rather than inserted one by one.
