No new school buildings or extensions will begin in Northern Ireland over the next year due to education budget cuts.
Dr Kingon said school buildings already being constructed would continue, but other planned work would be affected."It is unlikely we will be able to commence construction of any executive-funded new school builds or school enhancement projects."School enhancement is for school buildings costing between £500,000 and £4m.
The department was spending about £1m a year providing schools with high numbers of pupils entitled to free school meals with new digital devices like laptops and iPads.
