Usually as ad when any project or Institution
or school is Planned/ built, the first
requirement is to prepare a layout plan/ site
plan, showing the existing structure, tress, or
any component & then orientate the school
and allied infrastructure. This is necessary to
locate the school building & others
components at appropriate and suitable
locations, leaving sufficient spaces for
parking, playground, assembly site, future
expansion etc.
Such exercise is essential to orientate the
building in such a way that it has proper
ventilation, sun, aesthetic, cross ventilation,
avoiding glare on the black board etc and to
avoid haphazard growth in future.
Why school mapping is required
now:
Most of the school constructed so far have not gone
through the essential technical exercise which is
mandatory and is carried out by all engineering
department when ever any project is under taken.


This exercise is required for:For existing schools under SSA
a.
-
For all new schools.
School mapping in developed countries has become
an important document and professional firms are
given the task to prepare school mapping wherever it
has not been prepared at the initial stage
-
In developed countries the special tools, equipment
are used for school mapping. The tools and
equipment used are as follow.
- Project toolkit
 Animation & Graphics
 Audio & Video
 Computer Aided Design
 Database & software
-
Geospatial Technologies
 ESRI ArcGIS
 Intergraph GeoMedia
 GPS
Some of the such school maps
prepared with above mention
tool kits and technologies are
shown.

 In
India too under SSA,
attempts have been made to
prepare model school campus
by some SSA States. one such
map prepared by Rajasthan
SSA is shown.
 In
India wherever schools in urban/ rural
areas are constructed by engineering
department like PWD on an ear marked
site, necessary mapping/layout plan has
been prepared before the construction is
taken up.
 However the school constructed in rural
areas by community, PRI, in unplanned
colonies slums, generally the layout
plan/school mapping is missing
 Since
inception of SSA more than 2.1 lakh
primary, upper primary schools and 8.12
lakhs classrooms have been constructed
or in progress. In addition to above, school
infrastructure has also been added
through various schemes like PMGY, MLA,
MP funds, State government funds, funds
from Finance Commission and through
community including other sources. More
than 75,000 upper primary school 20,000
primary schools and about 5,00000
classrooms are yet to be added from
Contd.
2008-09 onward.
 Hence
need for school mapping for new
construction is dire necessity.
 Delhi State has done school mapping using
Global Information System (GIS) and Global
Positioning System (GPS). In such cases
school has been marked on geographical
map and State is in position to know where
the schools are located and where they need
more schools. Such mapping help the
planner to work out position of new school
as and when required. Example of GPS is
 Tamilnadu:-
Has also done school
mapping as has been done by Delhi for
working out the requirement for un served
habitations.
Actually we are looking for school
mapping of each and individual school
which have already been constructed
or which are likely to be constructed
School mapping for new school

Following inputs are require :Location (name of the village ,street ,area
etc.).
Boundary of the campus with North
direction and showing all roads pathway
leading to school site.
All existing land mark including tress, any
tube well, any boundary wall or any other
structure existing at site.
Orientate the new building to be
constructed.
Contd.
e. Including position of trees, kitchen shed,
child friendly elements, BALA element,
anganwadi, toilet, drinking water facilities,
gardening areas, assembly areas, parking,
position of gate and any other components
to be constructed. The map should show
future expansion as well.
f. Any important land mark near the
proposed school

Data regarding tentative strength of school
children, class wise, population of the
locality, rate of growth of population, out of
school children between 6 to 14 years

Other details will be :Name of the school.
Name of the locality.
Name of the block.

In addition whether school will
be having electricity.
it is in tribal, non tribal, urban
or rural areas.

existing
Prepare layout plan/ site plan showing
the following:Exact boundary of the campus with North
direction showing all roads, paths and
any important land mark near by.
Show all existing components such as
school building, ramp if any school gate,
path leading to school building, kitchen
shed, Anganwadi, toilet, drinking water,
soakage pit, garden areas, child friendly
element, including trees.
Contd.
c. Architectural plan of the existing building
showing the type of the building and
condition of each classroom (foundation,
walling, roofing, flooring, door windows
etc.)
d. Comparison with SSA norms of the above
plan and any new infrastructure required.
e. Class wise enrolment disintegrated to
boys and girls.
f. Number of classes.
g. Number of out of school children.
h. Population growth and growth of children
6-14 years
Contd.
Whether school is having electricity.
j. Is it in tribal, non tribal, rural or urban area.
k. Any classroom which is unsafe.
l. Deficiency in infrastructure in accordance
with present strength and in accordance
SSA norms.
m. Four color photographs of front, rear, right
and left view of the existing buildings.
n. Any other requirement / information.

Software
 Software
of school mapping will be
developed and data will be stored duly
compiled for each school at block, district
and State level. In addition to above
school map will be prepared for each
school on A4 size paper, which will be
displayed duly framed in the head master
room for future reference and planning.
 Once this data is prepared this will serve
as asset register and shall deter the local
people to encroach upon school land.
Contd.
 State
can think and prepared school
mapping with any such means, tools,
equipment which can serve the required
purpose.
 Gujrat State has prepared school
mapping through contract and also
prepared terms of reference (TOR) for
the contract. The same can be referred
with reference to State context.
