Fortnightly on Wednesdays: 24th January to 6th March
Hughes Hall is proud to be collaborating with the Faculty of Education and Department of Architecture at the University of Cambridge as the SDSG continues its second year of exciting events.
This term our theme will be Community Schools, which will also include community learning centres, extended-service schools and multi-service schools.
The School Design Study Group (SDSG) creates a space for educationalists, spatial practitioners, academics and students to engage in discussion, test theories, share ideas and learn about school design in an interdisciplinary environment. It operates though a variety of formats, including invited guest speakers, reading sessions and site visits.
