The given diagrams show how West Park Secondary School and the surrounding area changed between 1950 and 2010.
Overall, the area experienced major development, with houses and farmland being replaced by new school facilities, including a science block, a larger car park, and a relocated sports field.
In 1950, the school was located on the right side of the map, and next to it there were several houses. Below the houses there was farmland, while the playground was in the bottom-right corner of the site. A main road ran along the northern edge.
By 1980, the houses had been removed and replaced by a car park and a new science block. The farmland was turned into a sports field. The school building and the playground stayed in the same positions as before.
In 2010, the car park expanded and took over the area where the sports field had been in 1980. As a result, the sports field was moved to the right side, partly replacing the playground. The school building and the science block did not change their locations, but the playground became smaller.
