HLURB CLUP - Guidelines Sectoral Standards PDF
A. SOCIAL SECTOR
1. Education
1. School site must have a minimum lot area of 500 square meters. The area may be
divided into a minimum 140 square meters for the playground. This area is only good for
not more than 4 classes.
2. Space for playground must be provided, otherwise, easy and safe access to the nearest
part of open space not more than 200 meters walking distance from school site may be
presented as an alternative.
4. There should be at least one toilet seat for every 25 children at one time, preferably with
separate bathroom for boys and girls.
5. Lighting and ventilation should be proper and adequate. There should be natural and
electric lighting. For a classroom 7 x 9 meters, there should be at least two fluorescent
lamps and one wide window and electric fans to allow cross ventilation.
Standard Requirements
Size. This size of the site must meet the requirements of the enrollment and kind of schools as
well as the recreational needs of the pupils. It shall be wide enough to make adequate provisions
for an athletic field playground, lawns, agricultural activities and future building expansions.
The standards requirements of school sites for elementary schools are as follows:
a. One-half hectare (1/2 ha.) for a barrio school which has only one or two classes and no
grade above Grade IV.
b. One hectare (1 ha.) for a central school which has six classes or for non-Central School
which has from three to four classes.
c. Two hectares (2 has.) for schools which have from seven to nine classes.
d. Three hectares (3 has.) for schools which have from ten to twelve classes.
e. Four hectares (4 has.) for schools which have more than twelve classes.
How ever for special cases, where is difficulty in meeting above standards, the following
may be allowed:
Elementary Buildings
Standard Requirements
Adequate. There should be sufficient number of standards classrooms to accommodate the
school enrollment, as well as enough internal spaces for other basic curricular and administrative
needs of the school. A standard classroom should provide at least 1.2 sq. meters of space per
pupil and on that basis the standard dimensions of elementary classrooms have been prescribed.
In a complete elementary school, there should be a room of preferably, a separate building for
Industrial Arts (shop) classes and other room or separate building for home Economics classes,
with a minimum standard area of 2.5 square meters per place, or a total of approximately 100
square meters.
Internal space should also be provided for such basic needs as an administrative office, a library
(and/or learning resource center), a health clinic (first aid), a guidance and counseling room,
toilets, storeroom, launch counter or room etc. At least 2 electrical outlets should be provided
infront of each classroom, for the implementation of any feasible educational technology which
requires electricity.
The minimum standards for instructional and administrative spaces are as follows:
Size. The size of the school site is largely determined by the level of the education, the size of
the enrollment, the type of curriculum offered and the location of the school, i.e., whether urban
or rural. The ground area occupied by school buildings and other structures should not exceed
40% of the school site in order to provide adequate open spaces for assembly and co-curricular
activities, as well as to conform with national and local regulations and standards pertaining to
setbacks and distances between buildings.
Corridors
Not required at ground level if appropriate access to enclosed spaces is provided. Above
ground level, the minimum clear width is 2.0 meters provided that the provisions of the
National Building and Fire Codes of the Philippines and other relevant rules and
regulations are observed.
As a general rule, the same ratio should be maintained for enrollment in excess of 3,000.
2. For larger colleges and universities the campus should be at least 7 hectares on the minimum
number of students which is 10,000.
3. There should be space on the campus for holding class programs and sports activities.
4. The shape of a college site is not important as its total site, since landscape architects and
college administrators can adapt a campus plan to a variety of shapes with relatively little less in
efficient. A rectangular plot of ground with length not more than one and one-half times the
width heads itself most readily to the proper location of the various college units.

uses of areas in the Framework Plan must be submitted for review, evaluation and
approval by the Tourism Estate Department.
Service facilities such as parking areas, spaces for loading and unloading goods, utility
areas, staff housing, and similar uses, should be located in convenient locations.

with openings; and at least 7 meters along wall without opening;
- for multi-storey units – the minimum setback along walls with openings should
not be less than twice the height of the building measured from the ground floor
