From primary classrooms through to sixth form centres and exam halls, Postura Chairs are designed specifically for education settings. They balance comfort, strength and practicality, making them a reliable choice for teachers, facilities managers and school procurement teams.

Unlike standard chairs that wear down quickly or are difficult to stack and store, Postura Chairs are built with everyday school life in mind. They’re durable enough for constant use, easy to clean, and designed to support good posture for pupils of different ages.

For schools that want dependable classroom seating without constant replacements, Postura Chairs are often the obvious choice.

Benefits of Postura Chairs

Posture support

Postura Chairs are designed to support healthy sitting positions for pupils throughout the school day. Their shaped backrest encourages proper posture, helping reduce slouching during lessons.

For younger pupils who spend long periods sitting in classrooms, proper support can make a noticeable difference to comfort and concentration.

Durability

School furniture takes a lot of wear and tear. Chairs are moved, stacked, leaned on and used every day by hundreds of pupils.

Postura Chairs are manufactured from strong polypropylene, making them extremely durable and resistant to cracking or damage. Many schools use the same Postura Chairs for years without needing replacements, which makes them a cost-effective investment.

Stackable design

Space matters in schools. Classrooms, halls and storage rooms all need flexible furniture that can be moved and stored quickly.

Postura chairs are stackable, allowing staff to store multiple chairs neatly when they are not in use. This makes them ideal for multi-purpose spaces such as exam halls or assembly rooms where furniture needs to be rearranged regularly.

Optional Linking Ability

With the option to purchase chair links, the Postura Chair is an excellent option for school halls. We regularly supply large volumes of Postura Chairs to schools for usage in assembly halls. The optional, built-in linking device allows schools to form rows of seating that will stay in alignment.

Easy cleaning

In busy school environments, furniture needs to be easy to maintain. Postura Chairs have a smooth, wipe-clean surface that can be cleaned quickly between classes or during regular cleaning routines.

This simple design helps keep classrooms hygienic without requiring complicated maintenance. 

Choosing the Right Postura Chair Size

One of the key advantages of Postura Chairs is that they come in different sizes designed for specific pupil age groups.

Choosing the correct chair height ensures pupils sit comfortably with their feet flat on the floor and their arms at the correct height for desks and tables.

As a general guide, we recommend

·      Size 1, 260mm, is typically suitable for 1-2 year old children. This is recommended for use with 460mm high tables. A great choice for nurseries and playgroups.

·      Size 2, 310mm, is typically suitable for 3-5 year old children. This is recommended for use with 530mm high tables.

·      Size 3, 350mm, is typically suitable for 5-7 year old children. This is recommended for use with 590mm high tables.

·      Size 4, 380mm, is typically suitable for 7-9 year old children. This is recommended for use with 640mm high tables.

·      Size 5, 430mm, is typically suitable for 9-13 year old children. This is recommended for use with 710mm high tables.

·      Size 6, 460mm, is typically suitable for 13 years to adult. This is recommended for use with 760mm high tables. An excellent choice for secondary schools, sixth forms and colleges.

Selecting the correct size is important for both comfort and classroom ergonomics. Many schools choose a mix of sizes depending on the age groups using each room.

If you’re unsure which size your school needs, it’s always best to measure your existing tables before committing to a purchase.
