Abstract The 7th educational program based on "demander focus, learner focus, and opened education" requires many changes of school facilities. For the purpose of analyzing the characteristics of spatial structure of middle school corresponding to the 7th educational program, 25 numbers of middle schools founded during 2002~2003 in Gyeonggi-do were analyzed as the subject. At first, in order to understand the characteristics of spatial structure, 3 types of patterns such as "curriculum classroom, curriculum laboratory, home base" were categorized and it results in more three types of patterns such as "curriculum block, home base breakaway, curriculum laboratory breakaway", and after more objective analysis based on space syntax, the most opened space structure turns out to be "curriculum block type", and the most closed space structure turns out to be "home base breakaway type".
