Educational Facilities Manual 2010 (Revised Edition of
the 2007 Handbook, on Educational Facilities –
Integrating Disaster Risk Reduction in School
Construction) Chapter 4, G. Regular Classroom
Facilities, # 3 provided for the basis for Classroom
Structuring. To reiterate:
c. On the front wall (that is, the wall facing the class),
the classroom chalkboards, properly framed and
provided with chalk ledge and curtains, are installed at
a height which is in accordance with the maximum
comfortable reach of the children to the top of the
board. (The proper height of the chalkboard from the
floor to its top-edge is determined by multiplying the
mean standing height of the class by the constant 1.2.
This constant is the result of studies conducted on the
portion of the standing height to the normal reach of
the hand over the head of the individual.)
