They tend to be very straight lined and geometrically striking. The style above would be a massive contrast to what is currently being used in the UK Very different architecture style from the current UK trend in school design, especially in Scotland.

The article itself doesn't really tell us anything about how to create successful school buildings on a tight budget. Fascinating response from galessa.

This kind of investigation is to be applauded, even if the CIEPs are not the exact answer, they point towards a more thought out response. Rather that rushing in with the cheapest options suggested by developers, the Government should be taking time to listen to architects, but more importantly, teachers. Also, while the suggestion of longer teaching hours, mentioned above, would indeed help out some people with childcare options, it would be highly unpopular with most teachers, many of whom also have a life outside of work.

Critical thinking is wholly underated and thanks to epic failures of the human condition that present themselves as noble national saviours here to 'be fair, and to be seen to be fair' seem to negate the wise, and fail the eveyone. Do stand and applaud Mr Gove for his short sited love affair in being an absoloute muppet, please, thank him, send him letters, send him flowers, send him a whole heap of thank yous for really being a self-righteous weasel who doesn't understand the social schooling sytem that gives everyone an equal chance.
