		<Abstract>&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: &#039;Cambria&#039;,&#039;serif&#039;; mso-fareast-font-family: &#039;Times New Roman&#039;; mso-bidi-font-family: &#039;Times New Roman&#039;; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: FA;&quot;&gt;The significance of educational spaces is widely acknowledged. The physical environment of schools has a direct impact on the students&#039; learning processes and development. The purpose of study was to compare the design standards of educational spaces in primary schools in Iran and Finland. The research method was qualitative and comparative. The data collection method was documentary, and Bereday&#039;s approach was used for data analysis. The sampling strategy was based on selecting different social system and educational outcome. In this comparison, criteria such as per-capita educational space, classroom and school areas, number of pupils, and design of educational spaces were considered. The findings showed that the per capita educational space in Iran is approximately 2 m², while in Finland, it ranges from 11 to 13 m². In fact, Finland&#039;s per capita educational space is six times that of Iran. In Iran, the average number of students in a classroom is 24 to 30, while in Finland, it is 20 students. Additionally, the average classroom area in Iran is approximately 8 m², and in Finland it is 20 m². Also, Finnish educational spaces are more suitable than those in Iran in terms of speed, flexibility of space, and adaptability. According to the research findings, in order to increase the use of educational spaces, designing walls for recreational and educational purposes, flexibility of space according to the needs, facilitating the movement of learners and creating active learning environments have been suggested.&lt;/span&gt;</Abstract>
