The tutor2u office labrador (pictured) loves nothing more than a wander around the office. And it seems she's not alone as businesses look to encourage more employees back to the office workplace.

This article from the BBC highlights some examples of non-financial benefits being offered by companies to encourage employees to spend more time in the office environment.

Bringing your dog into work, even if occasionally, sounds like a smart more, particularly if fellow workers are happy for it and it leads to greater productivity.

Add into the mix subsidised childcare (strictly a financial incentive), complimentary food and free exercise classes. What's not to like about ditching the leisurewear and commuting to work just like the old days?

Here's a thought.

Would allowing teachers to bring their dogs into school or college have a positive impact on student learning?
