The school is organized from groups of interconnected classrooms that make up learning communities. It seeks to dissolve the boundaries of the classroom by integrating it in all directions with other spaces, allowing pedagogical activities to be taken outside the classroom by promoting collaborative work. The school spaces are articulated by courtyards and terraces with different character allowing recreational, sports and cultural activities, and greater student contact with the weather and the surrounding landscape.
