THANK YOU MAMA MBOYA

Money is any object or record that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts in a given socio-economic context or country

(Wikipedia the free encyclopedia).

Money as medium that can be exchanged for goods and services and is used as a measure of their values on the market, including among its forms a commodity such as gold, an officially issued coin or note, or a deposit in a checking account or other readily liquefiable account

(www.preservearticle.com).

Generally, economists have defined four types of functions of money which are as follows:

(i) Medium of exchange

(ii) Measurement of value

(iii) Standard of deferred payments

(iv) Store of value

These four functions of money have been summed up in a couplet which says: Money is a matter of functions four, a medium, a measure, a standard and a store.These functions have been presented below in the charitable.

(i)Money as a Unit of Value

Money measures the value of various goods and services which are produced in an economy. In other words, money works as unit of value or standard of value. In barter economy it was very difficult to decide as to how much volume of goods should be given in exchange of a given quantity of a commodity

(www.preservearticle.com).

(ii)Medium of Exchange

Right from the beginning, money has been performing an important function as medium of exchange in the society. Money facilitates transactions of goods and service as a medium of exchange. Producers sell their goods to the wholesalers in exchange of money. Wholesalers sell the same goods to the consumers in exchange of money

(www.preservearticle.com).

(iii)Standard of Deferred Payments

Modem economic setup is based on credit and credit is paid in the form of money only. In reality the significance of credit has increased so much that it will not be improper to call it as the foundation stone of modem economic progress. Money, besides being the basis of current transactions, is also the basis of deferred payments

(www.preservearticle.com).

(iv)Store of Value

It was virtually impossible to store surplus value under barter economy; the discovery of money has removed this difficulty. With the help of money, people can store surplus purchasing power and use it whenever they want

School is any institution at which instruction is given in a particular disciplinedancing school (book.google.com).

Modernadvanced technologyschool; is the one which is well organized including all facilities in term of environment,infrastrures and full administration(https//www.google.co.tz).examples of building of advanced modern school as follows;-

Types of advanced modern school are

Early childhood

Preschool this article is about schools for younger children between the ages of three and five or seven (Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

(Source: Wikipedia. the free encyclopedia)

Kindergarten is a preschool educational approach based around playing, singing, practical activities, and social interaction as part of the transition from home to school(Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

(Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

Elementary school

The term elementary school is used for schools where children from the age of about five receiveprimary education.example of elementary schools.

Secondary

Secondary school is a school which provides children with part or all of their secondary education, typically between the ages of 11-14 and 16-18, although this varies. It comes after primary school or middle school and may be followed by higher education or vocational training http//www.goole.co.tz).

The modern school we are intending to build should containing the following;

Infrastructure, The quality of infrastructure should be good including good classrooms with full supply of electricity, water supply and importantdepartment such as laboratories, libraries, surrounded with play grounds and recreation areas.

Example of libraries

Example of laboratories

Environment, the setting of the school should be placed in a good topography with exlussive of barrries of communication thus the setting must not be very near to heavy industries ,market,bars,or any other interfearence to allow good communication and efficiency durind class time (http//www.goole.co.tz).

(Source: http//www.goole.co.tz)

Equity, a school must base an fear involvement of direfferent learners that means gender balance and inclussion of magnalized and disadvantaged groups as well provision of special learning education( http//www.goole.co.tz).

(Source: Wikipedia. the free encyclopedia).

The quality of the school must focus an employment of welltrained and professional teachers, so as to achieve reliable and quality education .The quality should also consider employment of professional councelors for behavioural modification and also professional teachers for games and sports (Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

The quality of school must focus on minimum classroom size and number of students per classroom;Higher archivement in school with adequte space and those large space were used for instructional purpose the archivement was even greater.The lesson were clear .Students need ample space because crowding causes problems eample a high–density school influence archivement negatively(sdpl.coe.uga.edu/research/territoriality.htm).

(Source:Sdpl.coe.uga.edu/research/territoriality.htm)

The quality of school must focus on the ratio of student ,teacher and space ; The recommented size of elementary school classroom will contain approximantaryly 900 square feet for 20 students per teachers then with the social as the guide ,we expect to find a 1029 square feet per classroom(sdpl.coe.uga.edu/research/territoriality.htm).

The curriculum is really a brething and ever-document; The curriculum should reflect the current trends and needs of modern advaced technology education to the students ,employers and colleges(Sdpl.coe.uga.edu/research/territoriality.htm).

Teaching and learning materials,availability of important materials for teaching and learning like computers videos,information presantention techenologies, books,pictures,drawings,real objects,computer soft wares and had wares must be given first priorities for better efficiency in the performance in accademic issues with its proper application and instructions to the learners. (Sdpl.coe.uga.edu/research/territoriality.htm).

However if you had money can make any think you want can bring good school, can buy good teaching and learning material and can be pay well teachers which help to make school good performance to the students. Because money is very libertable in now days, without money cannot build good school.
