EU provides school building to Ampara

 

The European Union provided a new secondary school building for 300 children and 13 teachers of Ameer Ali village, in Ampara.

This project, costing over Rs.7.2 million made possible by the European Union through its implementing partner the International Organization for Migration (IOM),under the Community Livelihoods Support Programme (CLSP), includes a two storey school building with classrooms, store rooms, landscaping and site development, including drainage.

Prior to the new school building, classrooms and facilities were not adequate to accommodate more students. As a result of that the school drop outs were averaging 40 to 45 students per year.

The school will now cater for children from Grade 1 through to Grade 9, and with this expansion, the number of students who are expected to benefit from the project will invariably rise significantly in the coming years.
