(2 & 3) Extension of the old staffroom would not be a solution to the accommodation shortage. It is proposed that a transportable classroom will be provided to the school for this purpose. The Education Department has indicated that a transportable classroom will be available in August. The school may extend the old staffroom for use as a supplementary teaching space using its minor works funding, which is provided as part of the school grant.
