Setter Play offers a full solution for new play areas, including the building of fully insulated outbuildings which are ideal for adding more teaching space to your school.

Below you can see the new building (at the end of the roadway) that we built for a primary school in Bedford, to extend their nursery. We also completed the new soft-play area, and a teaching canopy, to create a completely functional and ready-to-use space.

We also build timber-clad teaching cabins, which are ideal breakout spaces for children with SEND additional needs.

We can assist with planning permission to build these structures, and also plan for the provision of electricity and water to them.

What are Sensory Rooms and Cabins?

Setter Sensory Cabins provide a calming and supportive space designed to enhance pupils’ sensory development and emotional wellbeing. Our sensory rooms create a safe environment where children with special educational needs can explore their senses, relax, and feel secure.

We have designed these sensory cabins to provide tactile experiences to schools and organisations requiring them, creating inspiring sensory classrooms that support students with a wide range of needs. Whether you’re looking for sensory room ideas or a unique calming room for your school, our cabins are tailored to suit your exact requirements.

Design of our Sensory Cabins

Our sensory cabins are made to create a sensory environment, whether you’re looking for a comfortable, quiet space or a larger sensory classroom for group use. After installation, you can enhance the cabins we build by adding your own soft lighting, acoustic insulation, tactile wall panels, and other interactive elements to suit your sensory space ideas.

Sensory cabins are constructed from high-quality, durable materials and finished to provide a welcoming and comforting atmosphere.

Purpose of Sensory Cabins

Sensory cabins are designed to provide a dedicated space for sensory rooms in schools, helping pupils manage their emotions, develop focus and engage with learning in a calm and supportive environment.

Enhanced Engagement and Learning: Sensory stimulation supports increased concentration and can lead to better learning outcomes for children with sensory processing challenges.
Better Emotional Regulation: Sensory rooms offer a secure environment where individuals can manage their emotions and build self-regulation abilities.
Support for Sensory Integration: These rooms assist individuals in processing and integrating sensory input more efficiently.
Encouraging Positive Behaviour: This approach aims to understand behaviours by meeting sensory needs and fostering a supportive setting. It embraces neurodiversity by encouraging self-regulation, acknowledging individual experiences, and helping individuals flourish as their true selves.
Sensory-Friendly Image: Having a sensory room signals a strong commitment to accessibility and inclusion. It boosts your reputation and helps attract a broader audience.
