Note: The programme was subject to changes in location arising from the fact:
(i) that one school, well advanced in planning, decided not to proceed with the project;
(ii) a few other cases were delayed considerably because of unforeseen planning difficulties and problems in relation to the submission of satisfactory documentary evidence of title.
