The architecture of the school buildings in relation to environmental quality is a major concern of sustainable development in the 21st century. The plan of the central corridor and the plan of side corridor built with baked bricks are the most practiced styles in the construction of these buildings. Today, in light of the challenges that must lead the academic space to ensure comfort conditions in respect of the environment, one wonders of the thermal performance of these conceptual models and the composition of their envelope. Based on a measurement campaign, the study allowed conducting an objective assessment of key physical parameters of thermal comfort in the climate context of an Algerian town in Mediterranean climate (Tizi-Ouzou). Moreover, bioclimatic analysis was used to identify major shortcomings related to the form and composition of the shell of the buildings and to conduct a comparative study between the two typologies.
