Cleaning Costs in NI Schools Double in 4 Years
Description
Schools in Northern Ireland face a significant increase in cleaning costs, with expenses doubling from £17 million to £35 million in just four years. This surge is attributed to wage hikes, higher employer national insurance, and inflation. The Education Authority, which manages these services, operates on a full cost recovery model, charging schools based on their size and requirements. With a £300 million budget shortfall, schools may need to consider self-cleaning or further cost-cutting measures.
