student desk

Where pupils sit

A student desk is a desk designed for classroom use, typically featuring a writing surface attached to a chair or a standalone unit with storage underneath for books and supplies.

The classic American version has a hinged lid or an open compartment below the desktop: She lifted the student desk lid to find her notebook.

The term also applies to smaller desks marketed for children's homework areas at home.
