dc.description.abstract	The city holds an infinite amount of possibilities with regards to wealth, power and knowledge. However, I believe the latter has not been adequately addressed, especially with regard to primary and secondary education. Therefore I would like to investigate schools situated in the inner city. To trace the origins of the prototypical school design and to challenge certain aspects of conventional urban and suburban schools. This investigation will help to formulate and isolate the requirements of establishing schools within the urban environment. Secondly I would like to suggest that a new trend towards grouping or clustering of education and information resources be challenged and instead suggest that learning institutions be located within range of other cultural institutions so that these facilities can benefit from such an association.	en_US
