CONTENTS • BACKGROUND • OVERALL ASIDI PROGRESS FOR 2014/15 FINANCIAL YEAR • DETAILED NON-FINANCIAL PROGRESS • DETAILED FINANCIAL PROGRESS
SCHEDULE 7: SCHOOL INFRASTRUCTURE BACKLOGS GRANT • The purpose of the grant is • for the eradication of schools made entirely of inappropriate structures; • provision of basic level of water, sanitation and electricity to schools. • The grant is also referred to as the ASIDI (Accelerated Schools Infrastructure Delivery Initiative)
ASIDI : PROGRAMME IMPLEMENTATION STRUCTURE • The programme is driven by Department of Basic Education (DBE) which has established a Project Support Unit to support the Programme Manager. • The DBE works closely with its provincial counterparts at Provincial Education Departments (PEDs) to prioritise and assess the needs for specific projects. • PEDs interact with the Provincial Public Works Departments as custodians to coordinate the improvement of the facilities. • DBE appoints Implementing Agents (IAs) to manage batches of projects. • The Implementing Agents appoint professional service providers and contractors to execute the work.
ASIDI SCOPE OF WORKS (objectives) • On all four sub-programs the services provided adhere to GUIDELINES RELATING TO PLANNING FOR PUBLIC SCHOOL INFRASTRUCTURE • Inappropriate structures (built entirely of mud, plankie, corrugated sheeting structures and prefab schools which are no longer fit-for-purpose, unsafe material eg. asbestos) • Provision of learning and teaching spaces, water, sanitation, electricity and furniture • Water Supply (schools that never had water) • Municipal connection where reticulation exists. • Ground water exploration and boreholes where the yield and water quality is of acceptable standard. • Rain water harvesting and Elevated water tanks for storage of potable water for immediate or future use. • Sanitation provision (schools that never had sanitation) • Waterborne sewerage systems where sufficient water is available, • Enviro-loos as well as • Ventilated Improved Pit (VIP) Latrines. • Electrification (school that never had electricity) • As far as is, schools are connected to the electrical grid through ESKOM. • In those instances where Grid Electricity is not available Solar Electricity is provided.
ASIDI IMPLEMENTATION PROCESSES • Building of a school is a multi year process and various factors contribute to the determination of the period to complete one. • The optimistic estimated target by the DBE is 18 months from project planning to practical completion. • Some of the factors which contribute towards increased time are: • Many of the schools require decanting before commencing with construction of the works. • The size of the school • State of access roads to the schools for mobilisation and delivery of material to the sites. • Poor performance by service providers and related terminations • IAs Internal processes • Typical stages followed for the building of schools
ASIDI IMPLEMENTATION PROCESSES • Appointed Implementing Agents (IAs) to build new schools: • DBSA, IDT, CDC, ECDPW, NDPW, FSED and WCED • Implementation periods differ for the different IAs • IA by IA case: • In the EC, DBSA (Batch 1) construction period took between 10 months and 26 months • The entire process however took 33 months.
ASIDI IMPLEMENTATION PROCESSES • In the WC: • WCED - the entire process however took 24 months. • In the Mpumalanga: • DBSA – min 8 months construction period. The entire process took 21 months. • In the EC: • IDT, CDC and ECDPW were appointed in May 2012 • IDT – min 13 months of construction. The entire process took 19 months. • CDC – min 14 months of construction. The process thus took 21 months. • NDPW – construction has not started. Appointment on 25 October 2013 (1,5 years to implement Stage 1 - 2) • In the FS: • IDT, was appointed in June 2012, and delivered first school 2,5 years after appointment • DBSA – delivered the first school in 2 years after appointment • FSED – 2 years into the programme and is at Stage 2 of implementation
ASIDI TARGETS AND PROJECTIONS INAPPROPRIATE STRUCTURES *Schools with low enrolment of less than 135. A process of rationalisation and mergers is underway. These schools are to be consolidated into higher enrolment schools
ASIDI PROGRESS – INAPPROPRIATE STRUCTURES • Appointed IAs are DBSA, IDT, CDC, Adopt A Schools, ECDPW, NDPW, FSED and WCED. • 299 schools have been allocated to IAs. The balance of the projects are in EC. • Since inception 109 schools have been completed to date: • 84 in the Eastern Cape • 13 in the Western Cape • 5 in the Free State • 4 in Mpumalanga • 2 in Limpopo • 1 in the Northern Cape
ASIDI PROGRESS - WATER • Implementing Agents are KZNED, WCED, NWED, GED, FS ED, CSIR, Mvula Trust, IDT, CDC and Mhlathuze Water. All projects are in implementation. • Since inception 382 schools have been completed as follows: • In Eastern Cape - 167 • In FS - 30 • In Gauteng – n/a • In KZN - 74 • In Limpopo - 91 • In Mpumalanga - 14 • In NW - 3 • In NC - nil • In WC - 3
ASIDI PROGRESS - SANITATION • Implementing Agents are KZNED, WCED, NWED, GDE, FS ED, CSIR, Mvula Trust, IDT, CDC and Mhlathuze Water. All projects are in implementation. • Since inception 372 schools have been completed as follows: • In Eastern Cape - 154 • In FS - 13 • In Gauteng – 14 • In KZN - 73 • In Limpopo - 73 • In Mpumalanga - 14 • In NW - 9 • In NC - 3 • In WC - 19
ASIDI PROGRESS - ELECTRIFICATION • Implementing Agents are WCED, GED, FS ED, and ESKOM. All projects are in implementation. • Since inception 288 schools have been completed as follows: • In Eastern Cape - 166 • In FS - 23 • In Gauteng – 2 • In KZN – 43 • In Limpopo - 5 • In Mpumalanga - 39 • In NW - 2 • In NC - n/a • In WC - 8
