Getting the school building plan ready is a task. Here in this post, I will try to share some ideas which can help you get close to your building plan and some idea on the cost.<\/p>\n
Fist does the plot for the school, a few things one has to be careful about choosing a plot for Schools is as follows;<\/p>\n
Once you are done with the plot, its lease and other essentials like Diversion (Change of Land use) and other essentials like NOC (if required) etc one has to look for an architect who can deliver the project based on the amount you have in mind.<\/p>\n
CBSE or any other board doesn’t really have a benchmark or norm in terms of Minimum area to be constructed. There is no requirement that a school has to construct ‘x’ square feet. Given the vision of the school and the investment capacity of the governing body, one has to plan accordingly. Though i have covered construction requirement for a CBSE school in my earlier blog, here are some norms by the CBSE worth highlighting are as follows;<\/p>\n
If one is looking to build Residential (Hostel) facility also, than one has to look for several other factors as well like Infirmary, Kitchen, Canteen, Stores etc. As a ballpark, a building plan which would include roughly 50% – 60% as the circulation area in terms of aisles and galleries with a verified tiling and proper paint on the wall with furniture is going to cost roughly about Rs 1000 – Rs 1300 a square feet. This includes all the furniture as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ideally one should look at an architect who has already worked on schools and have delivered on several real projects. Good architect would cost you anywhere between 20 Rs a Sq Feet to 90 Rs a Sq feet. \u00a0This would include everything from dredging, boundary wall, elevation to the column and beam design etc. What this might not include is landscaping and \u00a0interior designing.There are standalone architects, Experienced Firms and some Dedicated firms who only do Education Design\/ Schools\/ Universities.<\/p>\n
It is important to have someone who has done schools as the real capital expenditure in school is building construction after the land. A good and experienced architect can really help save costs and also help us adopt the best practices and ideas. Experience has a big role to play here. I can refer a few who we work with on multiple project. You can send me a mail, if you want to get in touch with them, also mention the budget you have, I will suggest accordingly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If you talk about my school, to ensure quality and to save costs, I have a fixed carpentar and a fabricator who make Brighton International School\u2019s furniture. The finishing is not that great, but I am assured of the quality. This is tedious and can be painful sometimes. The finesse is never there and one has to live with that.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Though, there are all sorts of suppliers, vendors in this field. You have International from China and Europe, National from Goa, Delhi, Bangalore, Indore etc and you have very local suppliers in the district and the city. To name a few national brands, we can count Infinity Furniture, Dovetail, Boston, Popcorn, iMod, Civom etc<\/p>\n
All of them are good and very finished, obviously they come at a cost.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
