School Infrastructure NSW

Students start first day of 2020 in new schools

Release date: 30 January 2020

Term 1 2020 will see the largest investment made in public school infrastructure across NSW, with 7 new and 17 upgraded schools opening their doors in Term 1.

Premier Gladys Berejiklian and Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning Sarah Mitchell visited students at Gledswood Hills Public School, Preston Public School, Epping Public School and Parramatta Public School.

The new and upgraded schools will benefit more than 20,000 students across NSW.

With 24 new and upgraded schools opening this term, the state of the art schools include new classrooms, performance studios, sports facilities, outdoor learning areas, halls and libraries to ensure students are receiving the best education.

The new and upgraded schools are part of the NSW Government’s commitment to education and ensuring that Australia’s largest education system is world class. Schools in both regional and metro NSW are benefitting from this historic $6.7 billion investment in school infrastructure.

The 24 new and upgraded schools represent a $974 million investment in children’s education for generations to come.
