Une école est un établissement où l'on accueille des individus appelés « écoliers » ou élèves afin que des professeurs leur dispensent un enseignement de façon collective. Le mot école vient du latin schola, signifiant « loisir consacré à l'étude », lui-même provenant du grec ancien σχολή, scholè (« le loisir »), lequel constituait un idéal souvent exprimé par les philosophes et une catégorie socialement valorisée opposée à la sphère des tâches productives. En étudiant le rapport des bâtiments scolaires à leur environnement, le géographe Pascal Clerc distingue quatre modèles successifs d'écoles : le monastère, l'agora, la forteresse, le nœud d'échanges.
