The provided diagrams illustrate the physical modifications made to a school site between 1985 and the present day, while also highlighting the concurrent increase in the total student population.
Overall, the school has undergone significant expansion and modernization. While the main entrance and exit points remain unchanged, the school has increased its capacity by constructing new facilities and expanding existing buildings to accommodate a larger number of students, which rose from 1,500 to 2,300.
In 1985, the school featured a smaller car park and a library located on the west side. By now, the car park has been expanded to a semi-circular shape, and the library has been converted into a “Learning Resources Centre,” with an attached computer room. Furthermore, the two-storey classroom block has been replaced by a larger, three-storey building, and additional classroom space has been added to the south of this block.
Significant changes have also occurred in the school’s recreational facilities. A swimming pool and a fitness centre have been constructed in the southwest area of the site, where there used to be open space. Consequently, the original playing fields, which occupied a substantial portion of the southern site in 1985, have been reduced in size to accommodate these new facilities. Finally, a small cluster of trees has been planted in the middle of the school grounds.
