Statutory and by-law regulations determine the function-
ing of the primary school, and within this also define the way
these premises are used. Within the framework of the project
Designing guidelines for the quality design of modern school
architecture with the aim of supporting a comprehensive
sustainable way of living and working in school, an important
goal is to establish opportunities for a movement-friendly
school. The goal was to check the attitude of school leaders
(with many years of experience) and the future professional
sports public (without many years of experience) to the use of
different school facilities for the realization of supporting physi-
cal activity. Questionnaires were filled out by 21 elementary
school principals and 72 students in the third year of first-level
studies and the first year of second-level studies at the Ljubljana
Faculty of Sports. Both groups would make significantly better
use of the existing spaces for physical activity, but in compari-
son, managements are more in favor of the occasional use of
school spaces such as classrooms, corridors and multi-purpose
halls, outdoor children's and outdoor sports grounds for sports
activities; the managements estimate that there are not enough
toilets, shower cubicles, hand basins in their schools, both found
a lack of foot basins; students notice more that students do not
shower after practice; a slightly smaller proportion of manage-
ment would practice athletics, gymnastics, football and hand-
ball in gyms; the proportion of managers who would dedicate
corridors and a multi-purpose hall to football in the future is
higher, and the proportion of those who plan P.E. content on the
outdoor children's playground is lower.
