Safe spaces in Australian schools: The role of bathroom and cubicle design in minimising bullying

School toilets, being private spaces with minimal supervision, are particularly vulnerable to bullying. The lack of oversight allows students to gather in secluded areas, making it easy for bullying to go unnoticed. To combat this, architects and designers must balance privacy, safety, and supervision in their designs.

Safe Spaces in Australian Schools: The Role of Bathroom and Cubicle Design in Minimising Bullying examines the prevalence of bullying in Australian schools and how smart design solutions can help minimise the risks. Innovations like open-plan washrooms increase visibility, reducing the chances for anti-social behaviour, while full-height partitions enhance personal privacy and security.
