Buildings, classrooms, laboratories, and equipment- education infrastructure - are crucial elements of learning environments in schools and universities. There is strong evidence that high-quality infrastructure facilitates better instruction, improves student outcomes, and reduces dropout rates, among other benefits. It is a fact that having schools in good conditions is decisive for students to achieve the expected academic results.

For those who love to read and study, any place can be good to read and learn. They might argue that the space you are in does not matter, that knowledge is immaterial, that the physical context is secondary, and that what is important is to concentrate in what you are reading.

But if we transfer this reasoning to the reality of educational systems, the empiric evidence is flagrant: having rooms and learning spaces in good conditions is decisive for students to achieve the expected academic results. In other words, the conditions of the schools directly impacts the performance of the students.

The fact is that a good school infrastructure, with renewed spaces, makes it possible for children and youths that live in remote areas to study and, in addition, tends to improve the attendance and interest of students and teachers in learning. For this same reason, investments in school infrastructure have an essential role in solving access problems of students to the school system and to improve their performance.

According to the experts, the conditions for a quality school infrastructure must at least comply with the following parameters:

• Comfort for students, teachers, and administrators: spaces for teachers and students, with an adequate temperature, ventilation, and lighting, with water, electricity, and Internet services, as well as sanitary services and the respective drainage of sewage waters.
• Spaces for the development of rehearsals and practices such as libraries, and natural sciences, information technology, physics and chemistry labs.
• Spaces for the development of talents and entertainment, sports, and culture.

Infrastructure at AJC School

In addition to the above mentioned parameters being fulfilled at AJC School campus, it also houses

• A wide and spacious air-conditioned auditorium,
• Enough parking lot for students, faculties and visitors to park vehicles,
• Wide parking space to park the school buses and vans,
• Open space with stone benches to assist parents who drop in to escort their kid(s),
• Air-conditioned, spacious office rooms for the Principal along with waiting area,
• CCTV cameras set up through the entire campus,
• Comfortably arranged office space to make fee payments, enquiries and postal transactions,
• Sick room to accommodate the kids falling sick all of a sudden,
• Trustworthy security personnel,
• Entire campus fresh with lush green plants.

Moving further, infrastructure maintenance and improvisation is a never ending happening as far as AJC School is considered. Every time you visit the school campus, you will definitely be able to spot a marked change in the way infrastructure is organised towards the betterment of students, faculties, non-teaching staff and management. With much wider vision to set up an excellent school infrastructure, we march on!!
