TAWAU: The Ministry of Education (MoE) continues to give a high commitment to providing good school facilities throughout Sabah to ensure that the teaching and learning process can be carried out in conducive conditions.
According to MoE data, there are 305 reconstruction projects of dilapidated school buildings approved in Sabah to date, and the MoE is and has implemented 996 reconstruction projects of dilapidated school buildings nationwide and, of that total, 680 projects or 68.3 per cent are in Sabah and Sarawak.
One of the schools that has attracted the attention of the MoE is Sekolah Kebangsaan Perdana in Tanjung Batu, which has been occupying the old wooden building of Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Jambatan Putih since 1997 that is dilapidated.
"I understand that by December or maybe next January, the Offer Acceptance Letter will be issued to the contractor by the Sabah Public Works Department . Then it will take 18 months to complete and this will make the students, teachers and parents who have been waiting for this new school for so long happy," he said.
In addition to SK Perdana, the MoE is also focused on the construction of a new building for the dilapidated SMK Wakuba in Balung on a 6.07-hectare site at Batu 15, Jalan Bukit Quoin, which will have 18 classrooms, a prayer hall, open multipurpose hall, computer labs and other facilities complete with furniture and equipment.
