Classroom poster printing

Upload the file, choose a size and a frame, and see it in the frame before you pay. Printed on 240gsm giclée paper near you and delivered tracked, with delivery included.

The display you designed, printed bigger than the school printer can

Teachers design their own displays and then print them A4 and tile them, because the school printer stops at A3. Upload the file and print it at A2 or A1 in one piece, on 240gsm matte paper that takes staples and Blu Tack without tearing. Delivered to school or home, delivery included, same-day dispatch in the UK.

WHAT TO KNOW

What to know about classroom prints

  • A2 for a display heading, a topic poster or a reading-corner print; A1 for the back-wall centrepiece. Both print portrait or landscape.
  • Export as PNG at full size from Canva, PowerPoint or Twinkl-style editors; set the page to A2 or A1 first so text isn't shrunk. Keep the smallest text at 24pt to read from the back row.
  • Matte, so it doesn't glare under classroom strip lights.
  • Three or more unframed prints to one address are 20% off, so a set of displays for a new classroom costs less than tiling and laminating.

A2 - 42x59cm: €14,95 unframed, €57,95 framed in Black, White or Oak. Delivery included; order below.

How long it takes

Prints are normally dispatched the same day in the UK, the US and Australia, and within a couple of days in the EU and Canada; framed prints take one to three working days to make first. Delivery is tracked and included. The prices shown above are for your country; for a full breakdown of prices and production times by country, see our pricing page.

THE PAPER

Paper you can feel

Satin
Smooth, subtle sheen with minimal glare. Lifts colour without the shine.
Matte
Classic flat finish, no reflections. The choice for art prints and anything behind glass.

HOW IT LOOKS

What you see is what prints

The crop tool fits your file to the size you choose and shows you exactly what will print. Then the product image becomes a preview of your print in the frame. If it looks right on the screen, it's right on the wall; what you upload is what you get.

Live preview
Your file appears in a Black, White or Oak frame the moment it's uploaded. Change the size or frame and it updates.
Crop you control
Drag the crop until the important part is in. Portrait or landscape, same price. Nothing is cropped without you seeing it.
Delivery included
Printed near you, tracked to your door, rolled in a tube or boxed in a frame. Damaged in transit? Reprinted and resent free.

REVIEWS

What people say about our prints

Rated 4.8 on Trustpilot by the sellers whose customers see our prints every day.

Your questions

Can I print resources I bought from a teaching site?

If the licence allows printing for your own classroom, yes; most do. We print what you upload and don't check rights, so that part's yours.

Does the school get an invoice?

The order confirmation is an itemised receipt with VAT shown, which is what most school offices accept for a reclaim.

Can I deliver to the school?

Yes. Put the school's address with your name and "for the attention of" at checkout; it goes to the office and the tracking tells you when.

Will it last a year on a wall?

Yes. The paper is heavy and the inks don't fade indoors; it comes down at the end of the year the way it went up, in one piece.

Making a display that reads from the back row

A display is read from across a room by someone who's nine, so it wants fewer words and bigger type than a worksheet. Set the Canva or PowerPoint page to A2 or A1 before you start; heading text at 60pt and above, body text at 24pt and above, dark on pale. One idea per poster.

Images need to be real files, not screenshots: Canva's own graphics and photos are fine, a picture pasted from a web page will blur at A1. Download as PNG at 2x, upload, and check the preview at the size you're ordering.

Order three or more at once for the discount, have them sent to school, and they go up with staples or Blu Tack straight from the tube. For a print you'd like to keep, the reading-corner one or the class photo, order it framed and it comes home in July.
