Did all Let’s School have to offer just a couple of limited facilities and introductory courses? Think again. Through research, many new flashy facilities and advanced courses can be unlocked. Unlike other management games that consume resources to do Research, Let’s School has an in-game facility called Research Room that will put Staff to work on researching new courses and facilities for the School. Still, if this resource team is not managed correctly, research times can become too long, halting game progress altogether.

Let’s School: Research Room and Research Proficiency
Early in Let’s School, players can build the Research Room facility. After equipping this room with research desks and a door (I can’t tell how many doorless rooms I’ve created), assign a team of teachers and give them a topic to Research.
Every Research Room will have a Manager in charge, who must have high Management Proficiency stats to prevent the team from getting stressed out. One more researcher can be added to the team for every research desk. Make sure to keep the teachers with the highest Research Proficiency Stats to assemble this team.
How to Unlock More Facilities and Courses in Let’s School
Continuous Research is necessary to progress in Let’s School. For example, after the first two weeks, students will graduate from Grade 2 to Grade 3. They’ll need to start taking new intermediate courses, requiring teachers to get course training.
The only way to unlock more facilities and courses is through Research. More items will become available in the research tree after completing each School Reform. For example, players can build the Staff Training Room and learn intermediate-level courses by completing School Reform I.
How to Increase Research Speed in Let’s School
The playground, which is likely one of the first facilities you’ll unlock, can be researched in less than a day. But as you progress through the game, you’ll notice that investigating the simplest courses can take days or weeks.
Maximize the team’s Research Proficiency to increase research speed in Let’s School. It’s not about placing a few Research Desks and hoping for the best — though having as many desks as possible also helps. The teachers sitting at those desks should have a high Research Proficiency and be led by a manager with high Managing Proficiency to avoid department stress.
A good way to raise a teacher’s proficiency stats is through training, but hiring them with inherent high stats is the best option.
