What makes a good school building? This unique, full-colour book brings together photographs and descriptions of forty-six fine schools from across the OECD area selected by an international jury from almost 200 nominations. These schools exemplify what is best about recent educational building design and management. The projects described range from major new buildings to small-scale adaptations and include educational facilities for all ages. Some are in city centres, others in rural villages; they cover the latest in educational technology and the best in sensitive restoration of historic buildings. This book will give a wealth of valuable pointers to those involved in designing schools of the future.
