In the context of the topics defined in the checklist; On-site observation and land use determinations, analyzing the existing maps, the physical characteristics of the school ground, the play and sport areas on the school ground, the arrangements suitable for the nature on the school ground, security-comfort, education and ground relations were determined within the framework of national and international standards.
