Presentation posted on the Newcastle University blog

March 15, 2016
On March 3, 2016, Newcastle University published on its blog the presentation “An architectural perspective on educational challenges – Jesmond Garden Primary School experience” by Paula Cardellino, an architect and research professor in the School of Architecture.

The blog post discusses Architect Cardellino’s perspective on the building and design of Jesmond Garden Primary School, a primary school in Hartlepool, England. This building reflects certain changes in educational practices, such as flexibility in the use of learning spaces and the concept of “superclasses”—groups of 90 children led by teams of teachers.

The presentation was given at the interdisciplinary panel “A space for learning: developing interdisciplinary understandings to improve school premises,” which took place on February 27, 2016, at Newcastle University.
