Schools, Minor Works and Maintenance Expenditure

In reply to Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15 November 2018).

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Minister for Education): I have been advised of the following:

Auto approval statistics are reviewed each month and a top 10 is developed to identify the highest number of auto approvals by site, either by the number of claims or the value of claims.

Where a site appears in the top 10 more than once within the same school calendar year, reminder emails are forwarded to these sites as well as their respective education director for follow up.

During 2018, the following sites have appeared in the top 10 more than once:

Athelstone School

Birdwood High School

Burnside Primary School

Edward John Eyre High School

Elizabeth Vale Primary School

Ernabella Anangu School

Forbes Primary School

Happy Valley Primary School

Ingle Farm Primary School

Kadina Memorial School.
