School mapping is a dynamic and continuous process of planning the distribution, size, and spacing of schools and facilities to optimize their use and benefits. It identifies current inadequacies and provides appropriate school infrastructure. The process involves analyzing demographic, economic, educational, political, and manpower factors to determine areas for expansion or rationalization of existing facilities based on population characteristics, resources, curriculum needs, and employment trends.
