There are 129 national schools in the Kildare Constituency. About two-thirds of the schools have water-flushed systems of sanitation. The sanitary facilities in the remainder consist of filter-bed latrines, dry closets or elsan closets.
Eighteen of the schools are being replaced by new schools, all of which will have a flushed system of sanitation.
The enlargement or improvement of seven existing schools is also planned and they will also be provided with water and sewerage facilities.
