Provided are the 3 maps illustrating the changes occurring at West Park Secondary School over a period of 60 years from 1950. Overall, it is clear that West Park Secondary School experienced profound modifications in the given period.
As is observed,in 1950, the school was quite small to the south of the main road. After 30 years, the residential houses in the northwest corner were demolished to give way for a car park and a science block. Similarly, farmland was also removed in favor of a sports field, whereas the playground stayed unchanged.
Between 1980 and 2010, the car park, through maintaining its function, was dramatically extended to the south and occupied the sports field. Consequently, the playground was reduced in size in order to make room for a small field. In contrast, the science block and school building remained stable from 1980.
