dc.description.abstractAll over the World today, there is a cry for educational revolution and oalls by educationalists for the dismantling of the educational system that has taken much sweat and efforts to build since the turn of the century; on the ground that it is inappropriate for today's society. In Nigeria, teachers, Student teachers and politicians constitute the vanguard of the movement while educational administrators on the defence have catapulted the blame to the rigidity and inability of School buildings to contain the new systems. The comprehensive Primary School is my attempt to receive the ball now in the 'Architects' court' and is significant for the following reasons: (a) it's spatial versatility, flexibility and activity orientation (b) de institutionalized School environment (nearerhome than Sch.) (c) chronological organization of class bases (d) intimacy and identity-potential of its structures and spaces. (e) consideration for communal participation in the School's life. (f) constructional ease. Scopes The school is designed for IOI4O children of ages of 4-12 years, comprising of 634 boys and 416 girls. It consists of administrative, and academic blocks and recreational play fields (active and passive). Focus: Emphasis on the provision of an environment that will encourage progressive, efficient and individualized teaching and learning methods, hence the provision of learning spaces which teachers could organize with minimum strain to suit their programmes. The project has offered ine opportunity for the reappraisal of architecture as "just a game of space, a view other theoretical class projects have tended to impress on me. The desire to make P.S.right answer for existing problems called for intensive groundwork (interviews , questionnaire opinions etc.) which revealed the dynamic role of the human factor in design; which gives me a renewed view of architecture as a "Spatial and Physiological game of resolving human problems. It also unveiled the need for architects to positively influence clientele briefs wherever possible for the benefit of the user (based on similar groundwork discussed) for the barometer of success or failure of any project lies ultimately in his hands (the user).en_US
