    Čarič, Ina ; Čudina, Mirko
    Noise in primary school is a highly disturbing factor influencing concentration, memorising, understanding of explanations and well being of children. It originates from the children activities or it ... enters from the surroundings as the result of traffic or of children playing at the school playground. Noise level was measured in different locations of the school and at different times, and than assessed with assistance of the opinion poll among pupils and teachers. The noise in the classroom depends on its position regarding streets and playground. Measurement results have shown that the level of the noise in the school, even, when there were no lessons, is over the limit or a little bit less. During the lessons the noise levels were much over the permissible level. Teachers are disturbed by noise at communication with their pupils and especially at work in the class, which demand a high level of concentration. Pupils can't pull themselves together because of the noise, they can't memorize the subject or they can't understand the interpretation. However, the opinion-poll have shown that younger pupils are more sensitive to noise then older ones. To reduce the annoying effects of noise in the school, several administrative and engineering measures were proposed.
