The main issue that guided the design choices was the desire to create the new school complex as a real civic and reference center for the community of children and their families. The design group was coordinated by the architect Luigiemanuele Amabile (in RTP with Archliving srl, arch. Salvatore Pesarino, Dr. Giuseppe Porzio, Dr. Gennaro De Fabbio) with the scientific consultancy of the architect Alberto Calderoni (researcher in architectural and urban composition at the Department of Architecture of the University of Naples “Federico II”).

The building is organized around two open courtyards, and includes classrooms and spaces intended for a school community of approximately 375 pupils (150 in the nursery school, 225 in the primary school). The new structure will be developed around a green courtyard while the primary school – on two floors – relates to a large paved courtyard designed to host events, sports and recreational activities in close relation with the body of the building intended for the gym.
