SUMMARY (addendum)
▪ School managers should carry out comprehensive assessment of
the facilities to determine areas of need.
▪ This requires an integrated effort of all stakeholders who possess
the expertise needed for accurate and up-to-date assessment of all
aspects of school facilities.
▪ The actualization of the goals and objectives of education require
the provision, maximum utilization and appropriate management
of the facilities.
▪ Furthermore, advances in science and technology, necessitate that
the school manager should adopt modern methods of facilities
management as this will improve the quality of teaching and
learning.
