How Indoor Air Quality Affects Student Health and Performance

December 24, 2020

How Indoor Air Quality Affects Student Health and Performance

American students spend over 6 hours every day in school. But how safe is the indoor air quality in classrooms for students to effectively study and perform at their level best? Studies have shown that when the learning conditions of students are improved in classrooms, their academic performance improves as well.

A student’s concentration levels to what he or she is being taught in class is greatly affected by both temperature and humidity inside the classroom. In this post, you’ll learn how indoor air quality affects student health and performance.

How a classroom’s quality of air impact student health and performance

Studies have proven that a highly ventilated study space enables students to learn and work at a much faster rate. In terms of temperature, students perform well when the temperature is at 72 degrees. Lower and higher temperatures than this affects the student’s concentration. Nobody can control the weather. It’s sad that most schools don’t have updated and well maintained ventilation systems to regulate the quality of air in classrooms.

Schools, just like office buildings, need regular maintenance in order to avoid and remove dampness and mold spores which spread freely due to poor ventilation. It’s also been proven that dampness and mold can lead to respiratory problems such as asthma.

Also, a poorly ventilated study space can aid seasonal illnesses such as influenza virus to spread even more among students. Having an indoor air quality monitoring system in schools and in homes could help achieve a healthy classroom environment and prevent students from being absent too often.

5 ways schools can improve indoor air quality

Schools and parents should vigorously look for ways of eliminating germs and other toxic particulates from the air. The following are the indoor air quality solutions that should be addressed:

  1. Reduce excess moisture and mold exposure.
  2. Avoid using toxic cleaning agents when cleaning the school.
  3. Ensure temperature and humidity levels are at safe levels.
  4. Ensure ventilation systems operate optimally.
  5. Ensure good disposal of garbage, effective dusting, and vacuuming.
