The Building Schools for the Future programme will see every state secondary school in the UK, a total of 3500, rebuilt or remodelled during the lifetime of the programme. Launched by the Department for Education & Skills in February 2004, BSF is the largest and most ambitious scheme of its kind anywhere in the world. It will transform education for some 3.3 million students aged 11-19.
The programme aims to create learning environments which inspire young people, provide teachers with 21st century workplaces and provide community facilities.
The Sorrell Foundation is one organisation that is working with school children to design their school of the future. The Foundation was set up in 1999 with the aim of inspiring creativity in young people and improving the quality of life through design.
The following is a list of common issues that students have identified in workshops held over 7 years.
A great organisation doing fantastic stuff. Take a look at their website to see their other programmes.
