The complex provides an educational facility aligned with the street and a series of spaces that can be used by a broader public marking the end of the Rambla.

Text description provided by architect.

The entrance is situated in front of this axis, with its sports courts to the right, close to the neighboring school, and the spaces for public use to the left.

A double porch leads either to the outdoor space interrelating all the buildings or directly to the school building which is laid out in a comb shape, with the classrooms occupying the “teeth”, joined by service spaces arranged on the street side and classrooms overlooking the playground area.
