Abstract
In the Netherlands near The Hague Schoolgroup Esloo will build a future school for prevocational education, with a focus on the technical vocations. It will be made with the people of the old school that is part of the Schoolgroup. The school will be named Corbulo College. Corbulo was a Roman soldier who built a village in the le century. The school will be opened in august 2001. In this article we will introduce the way this design was developed for a future school and the way we the design is implemented. We will accentuate the role of architecture and the role of ICT. Over the next few years, there will be substantial investment in the use of ICT and in the connection to internet in Dutch schools within the major programmes of the Dutch government. They are called “Investing in Progress” and “Education online” and Schoolgroup Esloo is one of the front schools for implementation.
