School signs

School signs – Examples

Right speed – A very common school sign near schools is a warning sign advising road users to drive extra slowly. The triangular sign depicts two children (in black silhouette) against a yellow background with a red border. It is a traffic sign which often features the word “School” underneath to highlight why road users should be extra careful. 

The right classroom

In primary school, the name of the class may be marked in clear and large letters or numbers on the classroom door. At higher levels, there are still door signs on the classrooms. However, they may be smaller and normally only feature a room number. 

Right detail

It is important that everything is in its right place, particularly in chemistry lessons. Acids, beakers and other materials are often labelled with small signs. This is not just to maintain orderliness, but also to ensure a high level of safety for sometimes corrosive and dangerous acids.
