Hide AdDeputy leader of the county council Cllr Tony Reid said: "I'm delighted that the school maintenance summer programme has gone so well.
"The weather didn't help with periods of heavy rain inevitably causing some headaches, especially on roof repairs but we managed to finish all the projects that were due for completion on time and within budget and the schools involved opened for the start of the new academic year."
Most of the school maintenance projects have been finished with others due for completion later this year.
