View answerMy Department provides GP room and PE hall equipment with the construction of all new primary and post primary schools, respectively. This equipment may also be provided where a large-scale building or refurbishment project is being delivered for an existing school. Additionally primary schools can utilise the Minor Works to replace PE equipment such as football and basketball apparatus.
