WATCH | The modern facility replaces the previous structure destroyed by fire and stands as a symbol of resilience and investment in youth development.

The St. George’s School of Sciences was commissioned today as the Government moves to provide specialized education at the secondary level, which it says is part of a plan to respond to the country’s diversified economy.

Two years after it was destroyed by fire, President Dr Mohamed Irfaan Ali commissioned a brand-new million-dollar Christ Church Secondary School (CCSS) on its original site at Middle and Camp streets.

The newly commissioned $253.8 million St George’s School of Sciences will be a pioneer in scientific research and education, according to President Dr Mohamed Irfaan Ali.
