More than three quarters of a million pounds has been spent in the last five years on the upkeep of Northern Ireland s former school buildings, some of which have been out of use for decades.
Of the total £772,000 spent by the Education Authority on maintaining previous school properties, £234,000 alone has gone on the upkeep of the former Faughan Valley High School site, which has lain vacant for 13 years. The Education Authority is looking to sell off the site in the near future, and confirmed it is in negotiations with a potential purchaser. If any deal is completed it will drastically reduce outgoings on the upkeep of vacant and derelict properties.
