The new date for the seminar will give schools additional time to consider applications for future refurbishment and construction needs in line with the School’s current Master Plan. The application for Stage 1 Notice of Intent for Capital Grant Funding in 2024 will be available for schools to download from 1 September 2022 and applications are to be submitted by 24 November 2022.
