Abstract
This study was carried out to obtain basic data for architectural plans on the facilities relocation needed in operating the departmentalized classroom system at the latest built middle schools. For this, floor plans of ten middle schools built in Gwangju after 2009 were analyzed about space configuration and area holding state. The process of this study is as follows: (1) To investigate proper area holding state for operating variation type, this study analyzed area of departmentalized classrooms, homebases and teachers' offices. (2) To investigate space configuration for operating variation type, this study analyzed composition of departmentalized classrooms, learning-support facilities and homebases. (3) On the base of those analyses, this study proposed some directions for architectural plans on the facilities relocation.
