We have decided to design the portable classroom for aboriginal kids in their primary education stage. Children there have had to walk from their village which is hours away just to go to school and back again. This portable would be located near or in their village for their convenience. The potable's design will be suited for the hot and wet/dry climate of North Australia. So the previous ideas of designing for a cold climate classroom has to be modified.
Normal primary school kids in the city and towns range from age 7 to 12. Some aboriginal kids receive late education, so the kids going to this class could be ranging from age 7 to 15 and above. We have decided to accomodate the classroom for 12 year olds, this way the younger and older kids can be comfortable in the space.
Here are some information of the stature data of average kids and movable furniture that can be used in the classroom.

I like the idea of a portable classroom.
This can also apply to back here in M'sia where the rural kids have to cross rivers or walk to their schools.
Looks like you've got the research done pretty well so far. All the best!
