A new computer center measuring 2550 sq. ft. was constructed for PACM Higher Secondary School. Our trust civil engineer supervised the construction. The project is focused on finding an efficient solution to upgrade the school\u2019s existing lab, which was cramped to deal with 32 hours of usage per week.<\/p>\n
The new computer room was constructed on the first floor above an existing exam hall to save foundation costs. The room was designed with good lighting and windows for good ventilation. The center also has structured cabling, switches for networking 60 computers, an ante-room, a server partition, and an area for instructing students.<\/p>\n
Seven-hundred students are using the new and spacious lab. They use computers to watch educational videos and listen to audio tracks. Economically underprivileged students between the ages of 11 and 13 have benefitted from this undertaking.<\/p>\n
