CHAPTER 2 SCHOOL PLANT MANAGEMENT
The school plant is one of the major aspects of school administration. It refers to the material provisions of the school. The school campus, building, playgrounds, library laboratories, class-rooms, furniture, equipments, hostels, common room, canteen---all these put together mean the same thing what the school plant stands for. The school plant is of great importance because of its impact on the educational processes and programmes. We must look upon the plant as an integral part of the learning environment.
Ideally speaking the school plant must look like a nursery for the growth and development of young children. It should be situated in healthy surrounding, and its structure must be appropriate in respect of climatic conditions. It may be possible to view it with a pride in its locality. It must look like an outstanding, health, neat and clean, and attractive building in the area concerned. It should possess a stimulating and inviting look.
