Abstract
Almajirai popularly known as begging Quranic students are
continuously on the increase in the urban areas in the name of
Quranic Scholarship. Instead of concentrating on their mission,
they constantly add to the over crowding of the cities, roaming about
the streets leaving only few that pay attentions to their studies.
Those few dedicated students lire in a congested areas that lack
accommodation, adequate reading spaces and other education facilities.
This thesis is an attempt to rehabilitate and physically plan
a mode school house that reflects the traditional system in a sub
urban area like Dadinkowa in Bauchi State where students could
concentrate serious on their education which would also include
space for other skill trainings. These could reduce the rural
urban drift, roaming about the street, unemployment and improve the
Quality of the education.
