Answer Body: 

         (1) & (2)

The following is based on upgrades and or maintenance which is planned for the 2020/21 & 2021/22 financial years.

Schools are included in the planned, Scheduled (Corrective), Maintenance Sub-Programme on the basis of priority. This is related to the condition of the school facility.  In other words, schools in a worse condition are prioritised over schools in a better condition.

The upgrading of existing school facilities, whether to expand or to replace parts thereof, forms part of broad, long-term, planning process. This process responds to, primarily, learner enrolment pressure & compliance of the existing school facility with the statutory Norms & Standards prescripts.
