“During 2024, through funding out of the state budget, 30 schools are set to be completed. We have also launched the call worth ALL 1.3 bn for the municipalities, which will apply with projects that meet their local needs and fit in the organizational plan of the MoES on infrastructure and school facilities. This initiative will lay the ground works for us to open more construction sites starting from this year and move ahead with the school reconstruction program. As part of the rehabilitation and reconstruction program, we will complete within 2024 the reconstruction of over 100 schools,” Manastirliu said.

The program for school reconstruction and rehabilitation also entails the establishment of scientific labs, smartlab and sports ground, including the gyms. Minister of Education and Sport also underlined the importance of practice through scientific labs.

Minister Ogerta Manastirliu highlighted the work being made in coordination with the municipalities and all institutional stakeholders in territory to increase the number of united and special schools as well as reduce the number of collective classes with the aim of improving the quality of teaching. This work also includes the expansion of spaces and classrooms to meet the needs of local communities,

These investments will make sure that our schools ensure a contemporary and stimulating environment, which promotes development of scientific and physical skills.
