The standard

The school was to set a new standard for Libya. At this scale it is one of the largest private schools to be built in the country.

The kindergarten

The kindergarten is at the centre of the design, because young children need extra attention. A sun-bathed courtyard with landscaping gives them a place to play.

The library

The library is suspended over the main courtyard, to stress the importance of reading.

Light and safety

Natural light is maximised throughout while direct sunlight is limited, for a good study environment. Four staircases spread across the campus allow easy evacuation in an emergency.
