Approved Projects
A project is considered approved once funding has been committed from the Ministry of Education. Normally, there is an initial announcement by the Ministry of Education which is support to proceed to prepare a Project Definition Report (PDR). Any project on this list has received funding required for design and construction.
This Progress Chart is updated following each board meeting.

Design
Following approval of the funding agreement with the Ministry of Education, the Design stage begins.
Sketch plans/schematic design is the preliminary design concept. The sketch plan then advances a detailed design. This detailed design is used to secure City of Surrey development/building permits and are part of the tender package.
Tender
When a project's design is complete, the project is put to tender. Construction companies bid on the contract to build new schools and expansions.
Construction
After the project has been awarded to the successful bidder, construction can begin.
This stage has many varying factors that can affect the length of time required to finish a project.
Target Occupancy
At the Target Occupancy stage, we furnish, fit and occupy the new development. While the building is now being used as planned, minor work continues.
