This bulletin, originally published in 1990 (as ISBN 9780112707301), has been revised and now takes account of educational developments since that date including the publication of 'The Education (School Premises) Regulations 1999' (ISBN 9780110803319) and 'School Grounds: A Guide to Good Practice (Building Bulletin 85)' (ISBN 9780112709909).

This bulletin has been updated to take account of developments relative to the school grounds it illustrated. Some grounds have been further developed and some have ceased to exist due to changes of school status or other building needs. In these cases new examples have been found to take their place and demonstrate the value of improved grounds.

This publication describes educational uses of school grounds and how the necessary resources can be created and managed. It is aimed at everybody in the school workforce to encourage the efficient use of school grounds.

This document also seeks to heighten awareness of the potential contribution that appropriately designed and managed grounds can make to teaching and learning and highlights the value of a multidisciplinary approach.
