The construction of the first five underground schools is planned in the Zaporizhia region, three of which will be located in the city of Zaporizhia, and two more in the Zaporizhia district.
Ivan Fedorov, the head of the Zaporizhia Regional State Administration, announced this today, May 1.
According to him, the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine approved the first projects of the regional team. The total amount of subvention from the state is up to 500 million hryvnias.
Fedorov noted that these schools will become an educational platform for children of several districts of the regional center and several settlements of the region.
Tenders for construction will be announced this week.
We will remind that the first underground school was started to be built in Kharkiv. It was assumed that 450 children would be able to attend it, or 900 in the case of studying in two shifts. Mayor Ihor Terekhov predicted that training will begin in March. However, the construction was completed only at the beginning of April. The final preparatory work before the opening is now underway.
