The school environment affects pupils' and teachers' health, work
and emotions. The good design of school buildings makes these
places pleasanter and more functional; and increases the quality of
the considerable amount of time users spend there. A fundamental
challenge of school design is to identify and accommodate the
diverse needs of different users. This book explores ways in which
school users can participate and their views about school
environments can be gathered. It also identifies, clarifies and
compares aspects of school design that concern teachers and pupils.
This book suggests a 'generative tool' for school design to guide
the design and decision-making processes of architects and
designers. Finally, it suggests an emerged 'evaluative tool for
designers': able to assess the quality of an existing school or a
new one at various stages of design in order to discover the extent
to which the school is fulfilling users' expectations. This book is
an essential reading for architects, designers, educators,
policy-makers, and those involved in childhood studies.
