REQUALIFICANDO O ESPAÇO ESCOLAR: proposta de um Centro de Convívio para a Escola Estadual Afonso Pena

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to propose the requalification of the Afonso Pena State School, a listed municipal historical heritage, located in the city of Varginha-MG, with a view to readjusting the open space and, thus, requalifying the school space and contributing to improving the quality of learning , student leisure and education in the municipality. The pertinence of the theme is justified by the lack of infrastructure, inadequate furniture and the precarious situation that the school is in because it is an old property. In addition, analyzes, after research, on the situation of Brazilian education, from elementary to higher education, were taken into account. To meet and solve this problem, it was necessary to analyze and identify the degradation situation of the school's premises, analysis of the surrounding area, vegetation, climate, public transport systems and access to the school. The objective of the work is to propose new spaces with more features, in addition to creative spaces capable of influencing students' learning. The proposal was elaborated from the results of a qualitative research, using analytical-descriptive procedures, outlined by a bibliographic review and documentary research, plus observation, records and photographic documentation. It is concluded that the visible degradation and deficiencies in the infrastructure of the Afonso Pena State School are demanding a proposal aimed at the development of practical actions.
