Emergency works grants are made available to those schools most in need of resources as a result of unforeseen emergencies of a capital nature that may arise during the school year.
Primary, Secondary and VEC schools which have suffered damage due to frozen or burst pipes during the recent inclement weather should, in the first instance, contact their insurance companies. Community and Comprehensive schools should contact the Building Unit of my Department.
