The province says processes have been finalised and work will begin.

A site-start notice and contract details will be needed to confirm the construction milestone.

What happens next

The project milestone comes from an official provincial record. Programme announcements, design, procurement, construction, commissioning and handover are separate stages, and the status reported here reflects the position stated by the issuing authority.

Built Report will update this North West record when the responsible authority publishes a later award, progress certificate or completion notice. Contract values and dates are not inferred where the source does not provide them.

What we will track next

The next update on Dinokana Autism School clears pre-construction process should test the whole school environment: safe access, functioning water and sanitation, electricity, accessibility, furniture and the removal or closure of old hazards. A new block is only one part of readiness.

Schools also need a practical route for reporting defects after handover. Publishing the implementing agent, contractor, completion date, defects period and responsible maintenance office makes accountability easier for staff and communities.
