SCHOOL INFRASTRUCTURE

 

Any place can be good to read, learn and write for those who love to read and study. For them, knowledge is immaterial, the place does not matter, and physical context is secondary. However, if we look at this in the reality of educational systems, the conditions of the schools directly impacts the performance of the students.

The location of a school has an enormous significance, and it should be set up in a suitable atmosphere. It should be far away from the noises and the polluting atmosphere where the child can easily absorb what is being taught in school.
