Abstract
This paper compares the indoor overheating risk of two schools by considering the effect of selected building parameters, under extreme current and future climates, and proposes mitigation strategies. The indoor air temperature measurements were conducted in seven classrooms in two schools constructed in 1960 and 1990. These measurements are used to calibrate the building simulation models of these schools. The study's results show that, in the current extreme year, classrooms on upper floors with larger window-wall ratios WWR (60%) and lower thermal building envelope properties are at a higher risk of overheating. Conversely, in classrooms located on lower floors, or featuring a small WWR (10%), or better thermal properties, no other Climate-resilient measures are needed. Under extreme future years the external roller blind shading, night cooling, and cool roof measures will be necessary for both schools, particularly for last-floor classrooms with south orientation and a 60% WWR in 1960 building.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
