  26. <meta content="In the interest of enhancing children's environments, many school grounds
  27. around the world are being 'greened' as asphalt and manicured grass are replaced
  28. with a diversity of elements and spaces, such as trees, shrubs, gardens, art, and
  29. gathering areas. Despite a growing body of research from a number of disciplines that
  30. is exploring the potential of these spaces, very little is known about how issues of
  31. socio-economic status (SES) influence school ground greening initiatives. In this paper,
  32. I explore what (if any) relationship exists between school ground greening and SES in
  33. a Canadian school board where approximately 20% of more than 500 schools have
  34. begun the greening process. A mixed methods approach was used: (1) 149
  35. questionnaires were completed by administrators, teachers, and parents associated with
  36. 45 school ground greening initiatives; and (2) 21 follow-up interviews were conducted
  37. with administrators, teachers and parents at five greening projects across a range of
  38. SESs. Three significant, and arguably troubling, patterns emerged as a function of
  39. socio-economic status of the school community. Participants associated with schools
  40. across a range of SESs had different: (1) perceptions as to the importance/adequacy
  41. of green school grounds; (2) access to adult support; and (3) access to funding.

  282. around the world are being 'greened' as asphalt and manicured grass are replaced
  283. with a diversity of elements and spaces, such as trees, shrubs, gardens, art, and
  284. gathering areas. Despite a growing body of research from a number of disciplines that
  285. is exploring the potential of these spaces, very little is known about how issues of
  286. socio-economic status (SES) influence school ground greening initiatives. In this paper,
  287. I explore what (if any) relationship exists between school ground greening and SES in
  288. a Canadian school board where approximately 20% of more than 500 schools have
  289. begun the greening process. A mixed methods approach was used: (1) 149
  290. questionnaires were completed by administrators, teachers, and parents associated with
  291. 45 school ground greening initiatives; and (2) 21 follow-up interviews were conducted
  292. with administrators, teachers and parents at five greening projects across a range of
  293. SESs. Three significant, and arguably troubling, patterns emerged as a function of
  294. socio-economic status of the school community. Participants associated with schools
  295. across a range of SESs had different: (1) perceptions as to the importance/adequacy
  296. of green school grounds; (2) access to adult support; and (3) access to funding.
  297. The implications of these findings are discussed.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">The definitive version is available online at http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/titles/14733285.asp</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Green school grounds, socio-economic status, class, children's play
