The school prioritizes functionality and safety with strategically located staircases, natural lighting, and accessible features. Functional rooms are positioned away from classrooms to minimize disruption. Hollow-core slabs provide structural support, sound insulation, and efficient ventilation, while the insulated roof and solar panels contribute to energy efficiency. The gymnasium is supported by open web steel joists for added stability.
