Write a brief
Write a short
statement giving the
general outline of the
problem to be solved.


Our task is to design and present what
the school would look like in 75 years.
We need to write down what has
changed and what we think the school
will be like in the year 2089. We need
to make a model and a poster.











Research the
problem
Think about ways in
which your
considerations can
be
solved/accommodated
for. E.g. If you
decide that your
school needs space
for increasing
numbers, what are
some ways in which
you can create space?

Space
- Buy houses
- Build up Double story
- Build down Basement

Money
- Charge students more money for fees
- Ask government for money
- Fundraising events
Time
- Build one space at a time
- Shut down the school for an amount of
time

Parking
- Underground
- Buy houses/land



Designing:

specification
This detailed
description of
the problem
spells out what
the design must
achieve and what
limitations will
affect the final
solution.

- Boarding school (Yr 9 Yr 12)
- One building school
- Two building - Dormitories one for girls,

DESIGNED SCHOOL (PAPER)

DESIGNED OUTSIDE (PAPER)



several
possible design
solutions.
Sketch several
possibilities on
paper.
