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.

11
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
W
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
