The school will consist of a primary, secondary and high school which fit in the asymmetric site, creating separate playgrounds, with the classrooms running in a zigzag form through the site. While it has this form, classrooms will still be oriented to the south and north and it can become a flexible space, because of the change from classroom to playground. To give the appearance of a playful school, the arrangement and size of the windows will be different, each decided by the utilisation. It will appear to be random but more interesting and childlike/playful for the pupils.
