Posted by Alan Kelly on March 20, 2014 at 12:05 PM
I welcome the announcement this morning by my colleague Ruairi Quinn TD, Minister for Education and Skills that 386 schools across the country will be able to undertake school improvements this summer.
Almost €36 million is being provided by the Department, this is the first round of funding for the Summer Works Scheme. A second round of the scheme is expected to be announced in the coming weeks. I am delighted to see that 25 schools in Tipperary will benefit from the scheme. The scheme covers essentialvelectricity, gas and mechanical works. These works will be carried out in schools over the summer months, when the pupils are on holidays, so the disruption in the schools will be kept to a minimum.
More than 98,000 students in primary and secondary levels will benefit from the scheme. The Summer Works Scheme is part of this Government's continued commitment to improve facilities in schools throughout the country. These projects will stimulate economic
activity by supporting 2,160 direct and 430 indirect construction jobs in the local economy. Almost €470 million will be invested in the
school building infrastructure under the school building and moderation programme this year,
