Free Standing Desks for Education
At EZ Shopper, we are passionate about standing desks, and we know that they can have a real impact on students and teachers in the classroom.
Why are we doing this?
We have several private and public school customers who have fitted out their classrooms with our standing desk range across the UK. We are so sure that you’ll see the benefits of having standing desks in the classroom for both students and teachers, that we are giving away one free standing desk to each school, with no strings attached. We believe this will raise awareness of standing desks, and the range of benefits for students and teachers.
Why standing desks for education?

For educators
It is central to a teacher’s role to both stand and sit whilst teaching. A standing desk allows the teacher to present comfortably, and more effectively, whilst being visible to the entire class. A height adjustable desk can help support a healthy lifestyle for staff and prevent neck, back and posture issues. Health staff means less days absent due to sickness.
For students
Standing desks have proven to increase productivity and help alleviate many of the negative effects of modern sedentary lifestyles. Studies have shown many health benefits for students from standing whilst working, in addition to increased focus and engagement.
Empower collaboration and confidence
Encourage teamwork and confidence through standing. It’s long been known that sitting and working can give off an isolated feeling to students. Standing desks can bring teams together for more effective working. For teachers, presenting effectively and eloquently can only be done whilst standing.
Show staff you care about their well-being
Standing desk trends in offices and for home workers has seen huge growth during the covid years, and for good reason. Standing desks are moving away from being a luxury, to an expectation for an employer to provide a safe and comfortable working environment. Why should this be any different in education?
What they’re saying
“Since using this desk I have seen such a huge increase in productivity, when marking books, especially – I just seem to be able to whizz through them much quicker. I’m able to focus much more in meetings and when completing planning, and importantly my neck and shoulder pain is easing every day.”
