Plans for modifications to the existing school and its extension were intended to provide barrier-free access to all areas of the school to provide education for all local school-age children.

The existing school building dates to the beginning of the 20th century. In the 1990s, it was renovated and supplemented with a gymnasium. Neither the old school nor the gymnasium, connected by a glass bridge, is accessible to wheelchair users. In addition, both buildings and the newly designed extension are located on a slope.

The main entrance to the school building has been retained and adapted for wheelchair access. The modifications to the existing building consist of making the various levels of all parts of the premises wheelchair accessible. The new building adds two more possible entrances to the school, from the south to the classrooms and from the north to the gymnasium.

The school extension is designed for roughly 120 pupils. In addition to classrooms, the building also houses venues for school cultural events, presentation of student artwork, etc.

The undeveloped areas around the extension serve as a school garden for growing local varieties of fruit trees, vegetables, and herbs. The existing vegetation on the site has been retained to the maximum possible extent.
