St Paul’s The British
International school of Warsaw
Facilities
We are proud of our custom-built building, which was designed to serve
its purpose without appearing to children as being too large or monolithic. The
front view is deliberately scaled-down, leading to larger buildings, amid
carefully-preserved trees from the former orchard and market garden. The school
building complex is in fact large, with a total area of 5,500 sq m (55,000 sq
ft) surrounded by its own playgrounds and playing field. The building includes
the central assembly/sports hall with changing facilities and viewing galleries
(facilities which are also available for extra-curricular activities for pupils
and parents). There are over 30 surrounding classrooms, including dedicated
subject rooms, each with specialised teaching materials. There are four science
laboratories (allowing us to offer separate Physics, Chemistry and Biology as
well as General Science). The labs are fully fitted to university standard.
There is also an art, craft room and technology room, which with our music room
and adjacent stage and Performing Arts Hall form an arts complex on the ground
floor. As well as the theatre and recording equipment there are two computer
laboratories with Internet links. Our recent upgrade of computer facilities has
also included placing computers in each of the junior school classrooms. There
is a large general purpose library, which can also be used as a study area. The
Performing Arts Hall doubles up as
a dining room. There is also a medical room and a “prefects’ room” for our
senior students. The building was completed in three phases, in 1993, 1995 and
1999 and has been continuously upgraded since, for example with enhanced
security for staff and students. There is more to education than architecture
but the school’s teachers start out with really excellent infrastructure.
