As the end of the school term draws near, the Ministry of Works and Utilities is preparing to go in to make the necessary upgrades and improvements.

He says it starts with an assessment by the school’s principal’s that’s when the bill of quantities is put together to be sent back to the the Ministry of Education

Once agreed upon and approved, it goes back to the Ministry of Works and Utilities.
