Especially in this current time, where the pressure to achieve in increasing, the need for a steady basis arises. The learning departments provide this basis and create space for individual attention from the teacher, but for group work as well. The small size of these departments guarantees sustainability of the child’s concentration.
The learning departments will get a warm ambiance, which makes the spaces feel like a living space. The world citizenship (Wereldburger means world citizen) could be connected thematically to create different departments with different world themes. This will increase the strength of the identity.
The outer space will be clearly defined as a stamp within park Osdorp. With this strategy, a clear line between the park and the school will be created. This increases the feeling of safety and security. Also, a side part of the building will be taken down, which results in the preferred relationship with the park.
New ideas,
built on old design
Over the past years, the school was adjusted according to the rules within the educational sector, but with no respect to the intrinsic fundaments of the design. The current situation of the school in combination with future developments in both education in general as well as in the education sector requires renovation.
The original design and the existing structure create opportunities to make the building suitable for modern education strategies in primary education. The unique porticos will be widened and will be used as learning department. Each department will be connected to a maximum of four classrooms.
