Construction of a school cafeteria serving the schools of Falerna Scalo: preschool, primary school, and lower secondary school

Plan for the extension of full-time (Mission 4 – Component 1 - Investment 1.2)

Italy’s Recovery and Resilience Plan provides for the extension of school time, in order to increase the educational offer of schools and make them open and available to the territory beyond school hours. The measure envisages the construction or renovation of canteen spaces for at least 1 000 structures to allow for the extension of school time. Extended schooling hours are expected to have a positive impact on the fight against early school leaving.

The investment is financed by Italy’s Recovery and Resilience plan by EUR 1 billion.

As part of this investment, the interventions covered by this project concern the construction of a new school cafeteria, which will be built on a plot currently used as a public park, thereby enhancing the range of services available to the nearby school facilities. This development represents an improvement in students’ school life, both in nutritional and physical terms.

The project includes several phases:
- Site setup;
- Preparation of the construction area (demolition of a wooden structure and foundation base; removal of playground equipment; site cleaning);
- Excavation and earthworks;
- Structural works (reinforced concrete foundations; load-bearing structure with columns, beams, and roof slab);
- Internal and external masonry works;
- Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing installations;
- Installation of doors and windows;
- Finishing works.
All interventions will be carried out in full compliance with current construction site safety regulations, minimizing inconvenience to citizens. This project is financed by the Recovery and Resilience Facility with EUR 826.500,00 and it is currently being implemented.
