Intergenerational living and learning: The value and risks of co-locating retirement villages on secondary school campuses - Evaluating the GrandSchools vision
Description
Objectives: GrandSchools is a new concept which co-locates retirement villages with secondary schools in the one physical environment. Designed to enhance the health and wellbeing of both younger and older generations, this intergenerational shared campus model promotes intergenerational inclusivity and active learning and living . In this paper, we explore stakeholder experts’ perceptions of current opportunities and impediments of this proposed intergenerational learning and living model.
Methods: A qualitative study reporting on findings from an industry seminar (n=50) and key interviews (n=10) from stakeholders in education, health, higher education, the management, and operation of retirement villages, and design firms.
Results: Three key themes summarised participants’ assessment of the value, risks, and what needs to change for intergenerational living and learning to become a reality.
Conclusion: By bringing younger and older generations together in one shared campus location, GrandSchools is a novel idea to promote intergenerational inclusivity, enhancing the health and wellbeing of our whole community.

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
