Education
The built environment has huge potential as an educational resource: it is inexhaustible, durable and entirely free. As well as providing a fresh starting point for lessons across the curriculum, the study of the built environment also instils a greater sense of community and citizenship.
By looking closely at their surroundings and analysing what they see, children can learn to identify and interpret the design and impact of the built environment all around them. From this they can develop a personal point of view about design quality and critical responses to their built environment and local communities.
