PRINCIPLES FOR LEARNING SPACE OF PRIMARY SCHOOL : Study on planning for school building of Hampshire in England

Abstract

The Principles for learning space of primary school are described in the design guideline "Design for Learning" in Hampshire. A classroom should have general teaching area, class base and practical area. And the shared spaces are needed in both inside and outside of classroom. The yougest children should have classroom areas which can become their family home territory. As they get older, children need increasing free access to wider range of the shared facilities and resource areas. And four new schools are introduced to certify how to apply the guideline to school.
