Tsukumo elementary school has been built with innovative planning and design as a small-scale elementary school; 6.3x6.3m classrooms and south-facing multi-purpose space etc. Since its completion, POE surveys have been conducted in order to study the differences between designers' intentions and school-users opinions and the way the school is actually being used. As a result, further useful knowledge for planning and designing smallscale schools has been acquired.
