The Irish Architecture Foundation are currently inviting secondary schools to take part in our Architects in Schools initiative in 2020/21. Students learn how to research, design and communicate architectural ideas, always reimagining the spaces around them and sometimes even affecting change in their local built environment. If you’re curious about what’s involved, take a couple of minutes to watch a short film which documents the experience of schools who participated in 2019/20 - https://architecturefoundation.ie/news/architects-in-schools-online-exhibition/
