                                                        The seating  arrangement did  not  meet  even the  basic
                                                        requirements,  let  alone  a  good  standard.  Old  broken
                                                        furniture  was  placed  with  sharp  edges  protruding


                                                        which is a hazard to the pupil‘s safety and 90 percent
                                                        of students sat on floor and on dirty corridors.

                                                        A  very  serious  and  surprising  problem  was  that  the
                                                        school was extremely over  populated .The total area
                                                        of  the  school  premises  is  4450  sq.mt.  Which  is
                                                        extremely less and is not sufficient for 4200 students,
                                                        let alone enough rooms. There is no area or land left

                                                        for further construction of rooms.

                                                        Since  there  were  only  41  rooms  for  4200  students
                                                        with no land left, we devised a solution of dividing the
                                                        school into two units. A separate building was arranged
                                                        for students and Buses were arranged for transporting
                                                        the  students  and  teachers  to  the  new  building  where
                                                        they  were  provided  proper  facilities  and  environment

                                                        of a school.
           A  school  does  not  feel  like  one  without  a  Morning  Assembly  and  this  school  never  saw  a  morning
           assembly. Morning Assembly is where we can pray, where we can develop a feeling of Nationalism and
           Patriotism and impart moral values through songs and speeches and induce a sense of belonging to own
           school among children.

           There was a lack of participation of students in co-curricular activities. The students had lots of potential
           but were never exposed to various opportunities and had knowledge of neither.


           Communication is epitome of any species‘ growth and we as human beings have only succeeded as a
           species because of communication. But here in the school there was poor connection between students,
           teachers and Principal as well. The culture of communication was very introverted.

           A laid back attitude among teachers regarding school as a system was identified which further affected the
           teaching,  teaching  pattern  and  its  seriousness.  This  in  turn  negatively  affected  the  overall  result  and
           upbringing of the students

           Since  the  pattern  of  teaching  was  based  on  old  classical  model,  there  was  lack  of  not  only  academic
           development but also moral and ethical values and other various aspects which hinders the effectiveness
           of a Complete Education System as a whole. This resulted in children with lack of academic knowledge
           as well as a poor personality with bad habits, which in turn affects our whole society

           All  these problems  resulted in  another  cumulative problem and  a serious one. The school‘s spirit  was
           dead.  There  was  no  enthusiasm  among  students  or  children  for  the  school.  A  perpetual  dullness  was
           observed by me and everyone seemed to have a passive attitude towards the school.
