Traditional buildings with modern lighting.
Founded in 1584, Uppingham School is one of the UK’s leading independent boarding and day schools. Set within the picturesque market town of Uppingham, the school blends historic buildings with modern facilities, creating a unique environment where students can thrive academically and socially. The school’s buildings, seamlessly integrated throughout the town and surrounding areas, provide a nurturing and inspiring space for learning, exploration, and personal growth. As students progress through the school, they benefit from an ever-expanding range of social opportunities.
One of the highlights of the campus is the Thring Centre, the Sixth Form Social Centre, which has recently been fitted out with LDL luminaires. The lighting design includes the stylish Millie System, suspended as a striking square feature, alongside Leila track lighting. This modern space, available to Sixth Form students throughout the week and to Upper Fifth students on certain evenings, serves as a dynamic social hub. It includes a sitting room, garden, pool table, table tennis, and a variety of other games, offering a welcoming and vibrant place for students to relax and socialise. The lighting design helps create an inviting atmosphere, perfectly complementing the contemporary nature of the space.
