Ferco Seating's Turn and Learn
Learners are able to participate in both tutor-to-student and student-to-student collaborative learning in a seamless fashion as every seat pivots a full 360°allowing users to interact with tutors, peers and engage in interactive learning without having to leave the seat.
When unoccupied, the ergonomic seats move away from the writing surface and rotate independently on a high strength steel arm in a seamless fashion.
Each one of Ferco’s distinctive models of Turn and Learn™ offer better strength and durability than any other comparable range of Turn & Learn seating available on the market and all of which are virtually maintenance free.

The interaction between individual students is minimal whilst students passively absorb knowledge passed to them from the lecturer.
The Turn and Learn™ supports a more modern approach to learning – a collaborative, student centred outlook where the physical space supports successful group engagement, very much part of the collaborative learning initiative.
Our Turn and Learn™ seating range is especially popular in many UK universities due to its ease of maintenance, comfort and versatility.

The Turn and Learn™ is a flexible form of seating, which allows movement and ultimately provides the occupant of the seat with a choice of interaction with a wider number of peers, making it ideally suited to group work and activities.
