One-room schools in Kiravia

One-room schools (Coscivian: Þusêmraforśēm) are commonplace throughout rural and remote areas of the Kiravian Federacy, especially island, highland, deep inland, and high-latitude communities. They are typically used for primary education only, though some extend to the intermediate grade levels and a rare few serve secondary-school students.

Kiravian one-room schoolhouses are typically octagonal in configuration.

The Kernea-based NGO One Nation - One Classroom reports that Niyaska, Fariva, and the District of Coīnvra are the only federal subjects in Great Kirav with no freestanding one-room public schools in operation, though Niyaska has one private one-room school and Fariva three, all affiliated with religious congregations. Kyllera has by far the highest percentage of public elementary school students attending one-room schools at 42%. One Nation - One Classroom estimates that a large minority (~35-45% at any given time) of freestanding one-classroom schools in Kiravia are public, while the majority are sectarian, community-supported, or otherwise private. In the post-Kirosocialist era, this balance has consistently shifted in favour of private schools as one-room public schools have closed due to consolidation and declining enrollment due to rural flight and the increased availability of alternatives such as homeschooling and online schooling, while a growing number of private groups have begun rediscovering the one-room model. ONOC has also documented a more recent phenomenon in urban and suburban areas of non-freestanding private one-room schools opening in storefronts and urban high-rises, many of which cater to a particular ethnic/immigrant community or experiment with alternative pedagogical models.

Many Gaelic-immersion  are one-room, and a growing number of multi-classroom bunscoileanna have ended grade separation, finding that teaching younger students alongside pupils with more developed language skills aids in younger pupils' acquisition of Gaelic.

Kiravian one-room schools are typically octagonal buildings.

In contemporary times, a growing number of distributist and traditionalist commentators have called for a revival of the one-room school model, arguing that the separation of pupils on the criterion of age alone interferes with organic social development and the cultivation of community solidarity, and that modern grade-based segregation is to blame for negative tendencies in adolescent.
