Features: This book is a follow-up to the "Architectural Design Atlas for Primary and Secondary Schools" compiled in 1985. It is a documentary publication that includes examples showcasing the new trends, achievements, and information in the architecture of primary and secondary schools in China over the past decade, aiming to advance the development of school architecture in China. The book features recently constructed outstanding primary and secondary school buildings, including both regular schools and special education schools. Regular schools include primary schools, junior high schools, high schools, comprehensive high schools, and nine-year schools. Each project includes an introduction, site plan, floor plans, elevations, and photographs. The selection of materials strives to ensure that each example has distinctive features. For foreign schools, the selection places greater emphasis on new ideas and approaches in school operation, planning layout, and floor plan design, providing references for readers to learn from. This book is suitable for architects, educators, and students in higher architectural institutions, as well as for administrative personnel in primary and secondary schools. The main teaching building is equipped with various teaching facilities (regular classrooms, specialized classrooms, laboratories), art and activity spaces, and office spaces. In terms of zoning, the front four floors are primarily office areas, the middle section is dedicated to regular classrooms, and the rear section is reserved for various specialized classrooms.
