Based on the relationship between the shape of the urban-space and the shape of the teaching space, this work aims to provide useful guidelines for the redesign of the school buildings of consolidated urban fabrics. The research defines a typological abacus of school buildings and uses a historicalnormative survey useful for tracing the evolution of the scholastic question. In this regard, the non-intervention has led us to face this study. We decided to focus on the consolidated fabric, by tracking the block-like type and examining it with the aim of defining the possible interventions.We intend to generalize the operation on the architectural type by setting a congruence relationship between the architectural quality of the building and the proposal of renewal intervention that offers, as a final result, the possibility of obtaining a compositional matrix for reuse and renewal. In order to make flow teaching space into urban space, we decided to include civic functions within the school complexes so that they become a reference point for the community; we intend to create innovative didactic environments, to relate the design solution with the reference context and to open the school to the territory by operating on the base of the building. As demonstration will be analyzed some examples of schools rest on the consolidated fabric of Rome; projects will be proposed and, in conclusion, the effects produced on urban form will be examined.
