OUTLINE OF PRESENTATION

SCHOOL SITE DEVELOPMENT


3

A graphic presentation of the Site

Development Program is referred to as Site

Development Plan.

Main function

to show the school site in its present

status and the current program period.

an exercise in the layout of

infrastructure



4

a. all physical structures with similar

functions are grouped together.

in accordance with the most favorable

options for grounds utilization which

creates functional zones and sets the

basic pattern for physical development.

the site is subdivided, allocating well-

defined portions for specific purposes.

PRINCIPLES OF SITE DEVELOPMENT



5

b. The layout of the buildings and other

structures, is critical in preparing the Site

Development Plan.

School buildings shall be oriented in

accordance with the sun path or the east-west

course of the sun during the day.

Variations in the sun path on certain season of

the year are negligible.


6

To prevent the direct entry of sunlight

into the instructional spaces, buildings

shall be laid out along the east-west axis

so that the windows have a north-south

exposure.



7

c. Buildings shall be arranged to

facilitate cross ventilation by exposing

the window sides to the direction of

prevailing breezes which is generally

northeast-southeast.

the east-west orientation is

sufficient inasmuch as it allows

adequate cross-ventilation.

d. When site limitations, such as

the unfavorable areas and/or shape

of the site, prevent the proper solar

orientation of buildings, economical

alternatives shall be resorted to.

example, trees near the buildings

are effective for minimizing the direct

entry of sunlight into instructional spaces.



10

e. The distances between

buildings shall be such that ventilation

is not obstructed, natural illumination is

not impeded and sound does not carry

into nearby buildings.

minimum distance between

buildings laid outside is eight

(8) meters.

f. The recommended

setback of the school from

the street line is five (5)

meters to sufficiently reduce

intrusive noise.



12

SITE DEVELOPMENT PLANNING

Purpose

to anticipate the future needs

and development of a school in terms

of physical facilities

to contribute towards conducive

teaching-learning environment.


13

A school site development plan shows

the following improvements:



14

Improvements of school

buildings including the position

of existing and proposed

buildings

Proposed structures in

broken lines

Existing structures in solid

lines


15

Arrangement of circulation

elements, and

Utilization of open areas.



16

Site development must be

flexible enough to allow

modification according to the needs

of the times.


17

However, modifications shall

adhere to the basic pattern of

development.



18

PREPARATION OF A SCHOOL SITE DEVELOPMENT

PLAN

a. The plan shall be drawn on

a tracing paper measuring

500mm x 750mm. Any white

sheet of paper may temporarily be

used.



19

• b. It shall be drawn to

scale as follows:

•1:500 for sites of two (2)

hectares or less, and

• 1:1000 for sites of more

than one hectare.



20

c. The following technical

description shall be indicated on

the plan:

c.1 Bearings of the property

line

c.2 Distances between

corners

c.3 Boundaries of the lot



21

The plan shall show:

d.1 The direction of the North

d.2 Relative position of existing features in

the site such as creeks, large trees, etc. which shall

be allowed to remain.


22

d.3 The relative positions and

description of existing buildings and

structures

d.4 Relative position of existing

circulation elements and hazardous

areas. Open spaces as temporary

evacuation sites.



23

d.5 Contour lines if possible.

d.6 The present and future needs of

the school in terms of school

buildings/classrooms.


24

e. Existing structures such as buildings,

walls, playground, etc. shall be clearly

shown in solid lines and the proposed

structures drawn in broken lines.



25

f. At the bottom of the plan is the title

block bearing the following information:

f.1 Name and address of the

school

f.2 The official who prepared the

plan


26

f.3 Names and signatures of

the recommending and approving

officials

f.4 Date of preparation



27

The plan shall be prepared in

2-3 copies


28

copy to be retained in the school,

copy to be filed in the district (in the case

of elementary school), and

one copy to be filed in the division office.



29

In the event of change of

school administrators, the

approved plan on file in the

school shall be included in the

turnover of school property

between the outgoing and the

incoming school administrators

PLOTTING THE SCHOOL SITE

In plotting the school site for its

development plan, the following are

required:


31

•Technical descriptions of the lot

per survey/title

•Protractor and ruler

•Tracing paper



32

Plot the approximate location of

the bearings/technical descriptions

of the lot using the protractor and

ruler as identified correspondingly

per corner, to wit:



33

N

E

S

1

Step 1 – Start with property line 1-2.

Draw a horizontal axis with its center being

marked corner 1.



34

N

EW

Step 2 – Taking into consideration the position of the North

and the South, position the midpoint of the protractor on the point of

intersection of North-South axis and the West-East axis then plot the

angle and direction of the bearing from corner 1 to corner 2.

36

Step 4 – To plot property

line 2-3 the same

procedure is followed in

plotting corners 2-3 and

the rest of the corners

until plotting closes.



37

Step 5 – Plot as scaled

existing structures and

important amenities using

solid lines and proposed

structures using broken

lines.

39

No changes in, or

deviation from the plan as

originally approved shall be

made without the approval of

the schools division

superintendent.

SCHOOL SITE ZONING

School site zoning is apportioning the

different areas or zones of which is designed for

a specific purpose or utilization in accordance

with the educational needs of the school.

An important principle in zoning is to create

the proper visual, physical and functional

zones, as follows:


41

a.1 Visual zone – the area which best projects

the aesthetic appearance of the school.

a.1 Lawns – Usually located in the

front area of the school. Lawns shall be

graded, landscaped, and drained. They shall

be sodded and planted with low-growing

border plants and ornamental shrubs to give

maximum visual effect. Fruit bearing trees

are discouraged to be planted in the side or

front of the school building as this may cause

distractions and accidents to the school

populace.



42

a.2 Flower gardens The intervening spaces between

the main building and the home economics building on one

side and the shop building on the other side may be

developed into flower gardens.

A decorative mini fence of wood or bamboo, or low

hedge, may be put up around the flower gardens for

protection as well as for better visual effect. Flower gardens

shall not be merely decorative; they shall be utilized in

connection with lessons in science, home economics, and

other school subjects.



43

a.3 Flowerbeds – The space around the building

maybe made into flowerbeds for further visual effect. It

may be bordered by a very low, decorative mini-picket of

wood or bamboo. Only low growing ornamental plants

shall be planted in the flower beds.

a.4 Assembly area – Adequate space

immediately in front of the main building shall be

allocated as assembly area for the entire school

population. It is where the whole school population

assembles for flag ceremonies, school convocations, or

programs, etc. The ground shall be leveled, drained and

tamped hard or cemented.



44

b. Physical zone – by determining the sizes

of the different areas or zones according to

standard requirements.c. Functional zone – by grouping together

areas and buildings with similar or related use or

function.

School site zoning ensures proper rationalization of

the relationship and utilization of external spaces,

so that no aspect of the school program may be

sacrificed
