Finding: Case Study Observation and Recommendation

The document discusses criteria for selecting a school site, including safety, location, topography/soils, size/shape, accessibility, utilities, and cost. Key considerations are proximity to traffic, noise, and environmental hazards; safe walking areas near neighborhoods; level land; sufficient space for buildings, play areas, and vehicle access; and availability of utilities at a reasonable cost. The site should allow students to safely travel to and from school.

FINDING

When I started doing the literature review the first thing, I wrote was what education means. It means
that a student should be experienced about its profession. That the person should have to have knowledge. If
she/he has knowledge they need to build a character. After defining what education its, after knowing it’s
historical background we classified school based on its ownership and level. When it comes to ownership, we
divide the school based on how they provide. For example, private school can specialize in one area like
academics, discipline, technologies and state cant specialize in one area and academy can specialize in one area
like arts and design, business or tech. but when we come to the classification of school based on its level we’re
dividing the educational level, their grades.

CASE STUDY OBSERVATION AND RECOMMENDATION

 A quite place surrounded by landscapes.


 Nearby residential houses, condominiums rise up the population on the students
 Connection to access roads
 Safety; like Accessibility to fire extinguishers
 Circulation- organized, easily accessible, safe
 Ventilation – total of 3 windows in one classroom provides ample of natural light and air
 Parking – having the capacity to park more school buses
 Playing area – a very wide space for courtyard (outdoor playground) and also activity room (for the indoor
playground)
 Differentiating the types of school using spaces, different types of form or by emphasizing it
 Adding sewerage system in the neighborhood
 Vegetation - pollution free environment which further enhances the living and learning environment in the school
 Landscaping - a perfect integration of architecture of school with its landscape.
- an interesting blend of hard and soft landscape
THE CULTURAL AND SOCIAL ASPECT
Teacher Leadership - Create a teacher leadership program that utilizes the strengths of your staff members for school
improvement. Teachers will learn how to effectively give and receive feedback, without emotional bias or interference,
there are lasting, systemic effects creating a foundation for a positive school culture.

Student Opportunities - When focusing on school culture, student perceptions of the school can positively and negatively
influence everything from student behavior to teacher motivation. To create a student-centered school culture, leaders can
strategically create opportunities for student leadership and seek out unique ways to engage students in non-traditional
roles. Improved engagement in the school, increased self-reported social-emotional competence, improved social
perception of these students by their peers and a genuine perception of school pride by those engaged and those they
interacted with.

Professional Learning - Professional learning opportunities are a powerful way to boost school culture.  To generate a
culture of learning and growth for all, the teaching and learning of adults must be an integral part of the learning cycle in
the school. Parent seminars, teacher training, student teacher partnerships and mentoring are all powerful examples of
adult learning, which can model the learning cycle for students, as well as how to learn from mistakes. This is a great way
to integrate the teach

er leadership program with professional learning.

Community Engagement - Engaging members of the school community that are a diverse representation of skills, talents
and activities. From creating a career day that celebrates community members to recruiting classroom volunteers from the
community to asking parents to serve on an events committee, there are many ways to engage the school
community. When leaders get the community involved, the culture of the school shifts to one of inclusive ownership.
