Setting up a new electronics lab
Wood, or conductive flooring, and wood or conductive work tops are crucial to prevent static.  A PC and an oscilloscope (or PC-based Pico) is crucial for understanding.

Development kits are crucial.  These can be shared.

Heavy duty draughtsman's chairs are required.

Breadboards and jumper wires should be supplied by/to students/developers so that they can have some continuity if they cannot complete a project in one session.  They can use food/cellphone lockers or shoe boxes to store these.  (Shoe boxes are static safe :-)

Brainstorm and design this with stakeholders.  Sign off the conceptial design before proceeding.  (How many students in the long term, etc.)

For serious development an editor/gate keeper is required to ensure that the documentation is in step with the devolopment.
