The Minister continues to inspect rehabilitation works

During the summer, the corridor connecting the academic buildings of Public School No. 176, which had been in disrepair for years and posed a threat to the school community, was rehabilitated and renovated. In addition, a sports hall was constructed. Last year, the corridors on three floors were renovated, doors and windows were replaced, a conference hall and a doctor's office were arranged, and the restrooms and drainage systems were upgraded. Repair works and the rehabilitation of classrooms will resume as soon as the academic year ends.

Nearly 800 students study at Public School No. 176, 17 of whom have special educational needs. A special resource room has been set up for them, and the school has been assigned a special education teacher and a psychologist, whose salaries are funded by the Ministry. These children are also served by a bus provided by the Ministry.

Rehabilitation works have been carried out in more than 1,000 schools across Georgia, two new public schools meeting modern standards have been built and put into operation, five new schools will become operational by the end of 2014, and the construction of two new schools will be completed by early 2015. In 2014, more than 1,500 schools were equipped with the necessary inventory, 44 public schools were gasified, and new heating systems will be installed in 34 schools.

Construction and rehabilitation works will continue in the future as well. Work in this direction is proceeding systematically, based on modern educational standards – the construction of 8 new schools will begin this year, and hundreds of schools will be renovated for the upcoming academic year.
