The BCA process identifies, prioritises and provides an indicative cost of the maintenance work which may be required in the short and medium term at each school. In essence, it is a tool which provides a basis for the allocation of funds and for assisting in the planning of future maintenance programs. Based on the current BCA data, the estimated total cost of maintenance work, ranked priority 1 to 6, in schools is almost $60m. The priority ranking is based on a risk analysis of not undertaking the work. Refurbishment of schools is considered within the context of the Department of Education and Training's capital works program. The estimated total cost of the refurbishment needs on a school by school basis is not readily available.
