Buildings and public facilities, especially in developing countries are considered national wealth which are necessary to preserve and maintain, not only for their cultural or functional value, but also they represent, wealth which is difficult to compensate with less financial resources and even non-existent in some cases. So their maintenance is important to maintain this wealth, extend the life of these buildings and develop them to be suitable for changing needs and requirements. Neglecting this maintenance leads to degradation, and may cause their demolition and removal to insure, the lives of their occupants in most cases when the treatment is difficult and impossible .Maintenance is considered as the third component after the basic design and implementation for any building. This maintenance is the conservative element of the building with the passage of time throughout its life. The educational buildings are considered one of the buildings which represent a major national treasure so they must be maintained long periods of time in good condition to play its educational role in the most perfect and safest manner. The research aims to highlight the procedures of maintaining educational buildings by reviewing and comparing between one of the most important systems of developed countries in the process of maintenance of buildings and the maintenance system of educational buildings in Egypt, through the review of legislation, administration and the stages of maintenance of educational buildings, and identifying similarities and differences in the performance of the two systems. To achieve the objective of this research and through the analytical method, this search begins by giving a theoretical background of the main definitions and basic concepts for the maintenance of buildings, followed by studying the procedures of maintaining the educational buildings in both of the United Kingdom and Egypt, and finally extracting the most important positives and negatives through this study, in an attempt to give a clear view of measures to increase the effectiveness of the maintenance procedures of the educational buildings in Egypt. And finally the paper provides a number of results and recommendations to improve the procedures of maintaining the educational buildings.
