Anyway, even if the images were from the refurbishment, that would not justify this kind of materials, colors, scale, light and space situations, that are just sad, confusing and claustrophobic. I would never put my kids on that school!! If this is a good example of the modernization that is being carried out, they should stop and think what kind of space/school they want: A School where people learn, make friends and grow up as a person, or a flashy fashion low budget TV studio built in record time, where kids perform like the stars from teenage series!

People this is a refurbishment not a new building. If you see the before pictures then you understand the goodness of this project.
