Surplus classrooms of primary are increasing by declining birthrate. The primary schools' facilities may share the function for local inhabitants performed in other public accommodation. In this study, we set conditions on mutual utilization between education by primary school and community functions. we clarified these matters as below. There are 110 surplus classrooms in the primary schools of Nishio-city, and most are used as learning rooms, multipurpose rooms and meeting rooms. Approximately 40% of surplus classrooms are used less than five hours a week. As for the activities carried out in community assembly facilities, in decreasing order, "study, talk", "get physical activity", "make a sound" and "craft”. Occupancy ratios of the rental rooms of community assembly facilities are low with approximately less than 25%. As explained above, primary school facilities can accept the activities of the community assembly facilities in public rooms without disturbing the use time of school teachers and children. At the points of rooms' property and amount of utility time, it is available in activities performed in the general rooms of community assembly facilities as specifications of the present surplus classrooms. Surplus classrooms can accept activities performing ones in the special rooms of community assembly facilities when we renovate there. Considering the security of the pupils, it is necessary to locate the surplus classrooms where pupils' flow do not cross community use's flow, and they are near the teachers' office.
