The maps below show the changes of a school from 1985 to present time. Write a report for a university, lecturer describing the information shown below. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

The two maps illustrate the changes that have taken place in the school from 1985 to the present moment.

Overall

, two noticeable features are the expansion of the classrooms and the reduction of the playing

fields

during the period. First of all, the population of the students increased from 1500 pupils in 1985 to 2300 in the present time. As we look at the map, the playground in the south of the map covered in 1985 the largest surface area. During the period it was cut down almost half of its original size and is now situated in the left corner of the school.

In addition

to that, parts of the playing

fields

were used in order to build a swimming pool and fitness centre which are now

initially

located to the left of the

fields

in the southwest of the plan.

Furthermore

, the classrooms above the

fields

and in the middle of the map have been significantly expanded until the present time.

Instead

of just two areas in 1985 three areas were occupied in order to build a larger number of lecture rooms.

In addition

to that, the library on the west side has been replaced by a Learning Recourses Centre and a Computer room.

However

, neither the location nor the size of the offices have changed and have remained the same over the years.
