The purpose of the research is to evaluate the acoustic design and physical equipment of the school by identifying the level of noise of a primary school in the district of Bursa or Osmangazi. The study used a sound measurement device and observation form as a data collection tool. The data obtained was analyzed using the visual research method. The school's noise measurement results show that it reached a level of 80,31 dB(A) in the breathing hours and 68 dB(A) in the class hours. These measurement values are much above the lowest class C acoustic performance maximum [39dB(A)] acceptable for educational facilities in the regulations. According to the observation, no sound-absorbent acoustic material was used throughout the school. In addition, the clock sound, anons, electrical spray sound and student noisy behaviors were observed in the building. In order to create a healthy learning environment and school climate, the National Education Ministry should encourage the implementation of projects aimed at improving the quality of the hearing environment in the school by the Provincial and District National Education Directorate. Interested persons in the school should run projects aimed at developing common awareness and culture on the subject of noise-free use of the closed space.
