Berlin continues to face major challenges in educational construction: the city is growing, the demand for additional school places remains high, and at the same time, existing school buildings must be renovated or expanded. Against this background, new construction concepts are gaining importance that are not only significantly faster to implement, but can also be used flexibly in the long term. <\/p>\n\n
Foundation Stone Laid for an Innovative Pilot Project<\/strong><\/p>\n\n With the pilot project “The Flying Classroom 2.0”<\/strong>, the district of Tempelhof-Sch\u00f6neberg is now taking an innovative path. On July 3, 2026, the foundation stone for the first three-story building of the new modular timber construction system was laid at the Friedenauer Gemeinschaftsschule on Rubensstra\u00dfe. <\/p>\n\n Modular Construction Meets Sustainability<\/strong><\/p>\n\n The special feature of the concept: the buildings are highly prefabricated, can be erected within a short time, and can be dismantled, moved, and rebuilt elsewhere if requirements change. The system thus combines sustainability with a level of flexibility that could play an important role in Berlin’s school construction in the future. <\/p>\n\n With a planned construction period of only around ten months, a building for 268 students and 17 educational staff members is being created. A total of ten classrooms and seven breakout rooms will be provided. At the same time, the new building meets high requirements for energy efficiency and climate protection with the KfW Efficiency House 40 standard. <\/p>\n\n Why the Project is Particularly Relevant for Berlin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n This pilot project is particularly exciting for Berlin: given the ongoing need for expansion and the large number of planned renovation measures, solutions are required that create additional capacity at short notice without sacrificing quality. Modular timber construction methods such as “The Flying Classroom 2.0” could be used in the future both as temporary supplementary buildings and as permanent replacement buildings during renovations. <\/p>\n\n A Model for the Future of Educational Construction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n The project was developed by the Facility Management Department of the Tempelhof-Sch\u00f6neberg District Office and is intended to be used in other Berlin districts in the future. Should the pilot project prove successful, it could become an important building block for faster, more sustainable, and more flexible educational construction in Berlin. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Berlin continues to face major challenges in educational construction: the city is growing, the demand for additional school places remains high, and at the same time, existing school buildings must […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":22939,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":"","_tec_slr_enabled":"","_tec_slr_layout":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22938","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-architecture"],"acf":[],"ticketed":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22938","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/20"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22938"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22938\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22940,"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22938\/revisions\/22940"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/22939"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22938"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22938"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schulbau.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22938"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
