Derelict school buildings must be renovated without delay

Does anyone know what differentiates between the developed and developing world? It is the general education that forms the basis of a nation’s development. I am not talking of the prodigious talents but of the commoners. For this reason almost every country does and should expend umpteen finance in the educational scenario. What are the essential conditions then? in order to make the education sector apt there is the need of a professional infrastructure including proper buildings, proficient workforce and a thrifty governance. These factors are strikingly absent in a developing country and that sparks off the difference.

But it seems that the same malady is entering the developed world or West bit by bit. A large number of examples are there that portray how the school buildings are becoming subjects of inhuman negligence in the realm of Europe along with the United States. Well, the fuel to the fire, in this respect, has been added by Nicola Morgan, a celebrated children’s author. As indicated by her, “dingy and flaky” school buildings can cause depression among pupils. Nicola Morgan is a know author of non-fiction books on how teenagers” brains work.

According to her, presence of dilapidated school buildings can lead to more problems and may pose a bigger threat to pupils by making their learning process impossible. In this regard Morgan said recently, “We all learn better when we feel uplifted, and no one can possibly feel uplifted in the dingy and flaky surroundings that some pupils and teachers have to spend their days in.”
“Scientists and psychologists know that mood affects learning when we are depressed, whether clinically or temporarily affected by our environment, we find it harder to learn or even to try to learn.”

It is to be noted that a large number of school buildings in the domain of Scotland have been found as derelict and some of them have already been labeled by the Scottish Government as “economically expired.” There is no doubt in it that rundown school buildings are bane in the society and governmental researches are finding out more such buildings. This is a dangerous trend indeed and they must be renovated.
