Project description

This primary school is located in the manager’s dwelling of the neo-Gothic building complex in Sint-Jorisstraat dating from 1879-1883 at the former Teachers’ Training College, and currently houses the Flemish Independent College for teacher training. The complex, which is protected as a monument, is a design by the Bruges city architect Louis Delacenserie. The lower school was originally the “training school” where teachers in training could gain practical experience. Consequently, it has a historical link with the Teachers’ Training College.

The building at 5 Hugo Losschaertstraat houses the school’s administration department. The children live in a single-storey pavilion building established as the nursery block at the rear of the grounds.

The primary school currently leases the ground floor of a walled-in wing of the college, in which 4 lower school classes are housed. To replace it, a new building of 560 m² needs to be constructed with 6 classrooms for the lower school.

The assignment is complex and challenging: the new build has to form a functional unit as a primary school and there is not much room on the site to carry out the new build. The new architecture also has to complement the valuable neo-Gothic site in a suitable manner.
