Schools, being the second home, serve a number of purposes in a child’s life. From boosting their confidence to making them learn the importance of team work and socialisation, schools do it all. Away from home, schools become the place for children to spend their maximum time.
Kids are sent to school considering the fact that there is an experienced hand to guide them and also a safe environment promoting growth. We also accept the fact that infrastructure plays a budding hand in creating a favorable environment for a child’s growth.
Sending children to a school where the building looks rundown and playgrounds need work can never be a good idea. Can parents feel safe sending their child to an environment like that? Well, even children won’t feel satisfied in a place that lacks physical comfort and other basic facilities. Let’s read between the lines to understand the impact of a school’s infrastructure on the overall growth of students.
Schools should create an environment that not only assures learning, but also pays special attention to the mental and physical well-being of the students. Studies and researches conducted to figure out the effect of infrastructure suggest that students in schools with poor infrastructure can have lower achievement scores as compared to the ones studying in schools that have better infrastructure and facilities.
