Laravel 5: organised models in subdirectory not found

I am trying to organise my app a bit better by putting models and controllers in subdirectories. I thought it didn't matter if they were in subdirectories as long as the namespace is correct, but now that I've moved them I'm getting a class not found error.

I have tried running composer dumpautoload several times, but it's still not working.

Here is my directory structure:

Since I have made the new directory Managers and moved those two models in there, When I reference the FieldManager class from EntryStructure, I get the not found error.

Code in EntryStructure.php:

namespace Pascall\ICMS\Models;

use Pascall\ICMS\Models\FieldManager;

class EntryStructure
    {
     function index(){
       new FieldManager(); // class not found
     }
    }

Code in FieldManager.php:

namespace Pascall\ICMS\Models;

class FieldManager {
  //      
}

Why is it not finding the FieldManager class when it is explicitly referenced in the use statement and they share the same namespace?

If your Models directory follow the PSR-4 specifications, the namespace in both of your classes should follow the class file path, so it should be:

namespace Pascall\ICMS\Models\Managers;

Then, in EntryStructure class you should use:

use Pascall\ICMS\Models\Managers\FieldManager;

Your use should be
use Pascall\ICMS\Models\Managers\FieldManager;
instead
use Pascall\ICMS\Models\FieldManager;
