Abstract

The subject of this paper is an attempt to answer the question – how to properly shape learning spaces in public secondary schools from a behavioural perspective? The overarching aim of the study is to show the process of creating design guidelines related to shaping a built environment such as an educational space for young people. A process that should be carried out with the active participation of those using this space.

The aim of the work carried out was to analyse the quality of the built environment, which in this case is the space of a public secondary school – Academic High School in Gliwice, against the background of the actual, real needs and requirements of all user groups of this educational institution. The analyses carried out were primarily focused on the behavioural quality of the space of the school facility.

The expected end result of the analyses and research was the formulation of guidelines, suggestions, which will contribute to the optimisation of the quality of the space belonging to the student work and study zone of the Academic High School.
