In addition, when major upgrades are undertaken at existing primary schools, facilities for music and art are often provided. In other cases, where schools have surplus classrooms, several of these are often used for these purposes. In the remaining schools, it is normal practice to deliver the music and art programs in the general classrooms. There is no specific program to provide music and art facilities in existing schools at present.
