الملخص EN

Based on the fact that the school as regarded from its construction plan and design has its own architectural and artistic reference in central Maghreb, its distinction-as an institution-from the architecture of the mosque was an essential factor which necessitated that its architecture be compatible with its function, and therefore the creation of a new kind of buildings that entered the Islamic architecture and triggered criticism and analyzes that rose to determin the origins of its architecture, architecturally and artistically in the Islamic Maghreb, and based on the exposure of its architecture to local style or foreign influences, therefore the possibility of demonstrating the scientific level, starting from the almohad period to the marinids up to the ottoman era, specifically in Algeria.

regarding the research problem, it is possible to consider whether the origin of school building is the local Islamic architectural reference in both the east and the Maghrib, or typical features that may be attributed to an older origin.

as it is also necessary to look into the importance and role of its main departments, facilities as well as its architectural elements.

as for the research objectives, what is essential in such relatively rare archaeological studies is the attention to the structural and design aspect of the educational institution within the framework of the compatibility of its architecture with its function, and extracting the uniqueness of this monument with distinctive design foundations, which is evidanced by its continued building and the existing these models todate.
