Ordrup School

The School at Ordrup is one of the school extensionprojects of the municipality of Gentofte and it is nowunder conversion and an extension is being built. The proposed project has been worked out on the basis of the value based programme formulated by SKUB in cooperation with the teachers, pupils and parents of the school and the new primary school act. The school is to be converted from a 2-form into a 3-form entry school, and a school dentist clinic is to be incorporated. Moreover the new primary school act has resulted in a wish of changing the physical structure of the school in order to be able to meet the upgrading of the project based classes compared to the lesson based classes. According to the project the technical subjects are moved to the ground floor round a central square with workshops. The settling in unit and GFO are placed on the ground floor and 1st floor with access to a large common area, which is in direct contact with the landscape. By means of connected hallways this common area binds the school together transversely.
