User Feedback

The ventilation inside the classrooms as such is good with airflow being sufficient for comfort These rooms have ceiling fans installed but they are rarely used, as the school is operating only between 8.00 a.m. and 1.00 p.m. In the late afternoon, it becomes a little uncomfortable. There is no problem with daylighting even in the dark monsoon period as enough window and Skylights have been provided. The children have been happy with the building.
