Project description

The city of Krefeld has commissioned PLAN FORWARD GmbH with the general planning for the modernization and extension of the municipal community elementary school Jahnschule to a 4-stream elementary school. 

Based on a feasibility study conducted by the city of Krefeld, the project is to be realized in two construction phases:

1. New constriction:
It is planned to build a 4-storey new building at Joachimstraße on the lower schoolyard. A cafeteria, kitchen and ancillary rooms will be located in the basement, at ground level to the lower schoolyard. Four multifunctional rooms each, as well as an inclusion room, meeting room and bathrooms make up the upper floors. The remaining lower schoolyard area will be redesigned.

2. Modernization:
The existing complex consists of the 3-story main building on Joachimstraße, the 2-3-story building on Girmesdyk, and the oldest building in the center of the site, the gymnasium with locker rooms and former janitor's apartment.

The dilapidated pavilions on the western schoolyard boundary will be demolished and the resulting expanded upper schoolyard area will also be redesigned. Completion is planned for the end of 2025.
