This paper attempts to construct a useful laboratory for the chemistry class of a high school in Tanzania.
The overall safety profile of schools would be greatly improved if the chemistry laboratory, preparation room and chemical stores area were properly designed in the first place. Many schools are now in the process of renovating or building new chemistry labs.
A laboratory is a facility that provides controlled conditions in which scientific or technological research, experiments, and measurement may be performed. Laboratory services are provided in a variety of settings physicians’ offices, clinics, hospitals, and regional and national referral centers.
School science lab supplies play an important role in the advances and technologies being made in the world. Today, high school science education aims to provide scientific literacy for all as part of a liberal education and to prepare students for further study, work, and citizenship. As the goals of Tanzania educational policy is to provide young scientists, promoting of science subjects and using of the schools’ laboratories can stand as a powerful tool to build up the minds’ sets of our students to scientific universe.
