The Tánaiste and Minister for Education and Skills, Ms. Mary Coughlan, T.D., has confirmed that work is well advanced in the majority of schools approved for works this summer under the record €122 million Summer Works Scheme she announced in April.
In total, more than 1,500 primary and post-primary schools were included in the scheme that is funding projects in our schools such as gas, electrical and mechanical works, roof replacements and repairs, window replacement, toilet upgrades, structural improvements and access works.
Conservative estimates indicate that more than 4,400 tradespeople will be kept in work during the summer period on foot of the investment prioritised by the Tánaiste.
