The chart below illustrates the development of West Park Secondary School over a sixty-year period following its construction in 1950.
Overall, the main structure of the school remained unchanged during the first thirty years, and its size and location stayed constant. However, the surrounding areas underwent significant transformations, particularly between 1950 and 1980.
The most notable modification in the initial phase was the construction of a car park and a science block, which replaced the houses located on the west side of the main building. Additionally, the farmland to the southwest was converted into a sports field. During this period, the playground and the school itself remained unchanged.
In the second phase of development, spanning from 1980 to 2010, the car park and sports field were combined into a larger car park. Furthermore, the playground was reconfigured into a smaller playground alongside a compact sports field. The science block, school building, and the main road saw very little change during this latter phase of development.
