NEW SUPER SCHOOL CAMPUS<\/strong><\/p>\n

As you will already know, plans for a new \u201csuper school\u201d, are being finalised as we speak. There are many things that we would like to see in this new school which would make the campus a safe environment for pupils as well as staff. There are also some points we would like to discuss which in our opinion would have to change in order for the school to run smoothly. So without further ado let\u2019s start with some of the things we think the new school should have.<\/p>\n

We think the building itself would have to be very large if it were to meet the requirements of the merged senior schools. It would have to have lots of outdoor space for school activities and this would help keep pupils amused, healthy and happy. This could mean grassy areas for sports, good space for younger children to socialise and play and so on.<\/p>\n

As well as, it should have big classrooms; crush areas, gym halls, working spaces and cafeterias.<\/p>\n

Also, the new school should have a good car parking system in place to reduce the risk of injuries and keep pupils and staff safe. Children should be informed about road safety and with an organised car parking system pupils and staff will be very safe in the campus. The car park should also include easy access for disabled people and busses. This would mean disabled parking spaces nearer to the building and a designated area for school busses, taxis and other transport.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the whole campus should have easy access for disabled people. This means: widened doors, ramps installed, stair lifts\/lifts, light switches closer to the ground, toilets downstairs and disabled toilets fitted with emergency buttons in case an accident occurs.<\/p>\n

Next, special learning support and special working areas should be included to meet the needs of pupils with learning disabilities such as dyslexia. It would also be useful to have teachers who are qualified to teach and support these pupils throughout their entire education.<\/p>\n

In addition to our last point, other departments within the school should be dedicated to meet the needs of other children who have more physical and mental disabilities such as: Down syndrome or Autism. Teachers should consider the following things to help these pupils:<\/p>\n
