Environmental Quality Analysis

An environmental quality analysis (EQA) involves one person's opinion on how good or bad an area is based on human/man-made and physical/natural features using a 1 to 5 scale. Students will do EQAs of the school grounds in pairs, with each student completing a sheet assessing 3 different locations. Aspects to examine include litter, noise, dust, smell, and appearance. Students will decide what to assess and draw up a recording sheet before surveying 5-6 areas and presenting their results clearly.

Your task
• You are going to do six EQAs around the
school grounds in pairs
• One person will complete one sheet with
three locations and the other person will
do the other using three different locations
– then you will each have a completed
sheet for your Geography books
What sort of location could you
choose ?
Some possible suggestions : -
What aspects might we look at when
assessing the school grounds ?
Some possible examples : -

• Litter
• Noise
• Dust
• Smell
• Appearance
Behaviour
• We trust you to behave sensibly
• Please tell an adult at once if you see
someone misbehave
• You must not go into areas where you are
not allowed to go normally – except our
side of the mobiles
• Remember to walk on the ramps and
inside
• Return to class when you hear a whistle
In pairs, decide on what you want to assess
when we walk around the school grounds

• Draw up some sort of recording sheet

• Decide on 5 or 6 areas where you want to


do your survey.
Now do your environmental survey
• Can you present your results in a clear
way?
Local Walk next week
• We need help from parents
• We will be looking at good and bad areas
of the neighbourhood.
Eg. Litter, noise, dust and dirt, traffic, well
cared for gardens, pollution, graffiti, smell,
green open spaces and appearance
including uncared for areas
