(1-2) Consistent with the policy of the previous Liberal-National Government, the Carpenter Government provides air-conditioning to schools in the air-conditioning zone, all demountables and in all new rooms where air conditioning previously existed
Approximately 520 schools are outside the air-cooling zone, however many have used school funds to partially or totally air-cool their classrooms.
As the Department of Education and Training does not allocate funding for air-cooling to these schools, this information is not readily available.
(3)The classrooms in all schools located within the air-cooling zone are air-cooled.
