The indoor climate in the barracks is not approved, and the health authorities have given advance notice of the closure of the building.  &#8211; This is not sustainable, and I do not want any children to be taught under such conditions, says the head of FAU at the school, Patrycja S\u00e6le.  The barracks have been here for about a year and a half.  They were not of the quality that the municipality expected.  Now a new process is underway.  Photo: Leif Rune L\u00f8land Got bad barracks The problem started back in 2016. Storeb\u00f8 school had then just finished expanding to accommodate the number of pupils there.  But in the same year the politicians decided to close Trolandshamar school on Hundv\u00e5k\u00f8y.  100 pupils were then transferred to Storeb\u00f8 school, which was therefore full again.  Further development was planned.  &#8211; Quite early on I got a signal that the school was too small, says mayor of Austevoll municipality Morten Storeb\u00f8 (H).  Last year, the two seventh-graders were placed on a barracks rig at the school.  The mayor believes the situation is unfortunate.  &#8211; These barracks have not had the quality I expected, he says.  Student council leader Mikkel Hatlevik says that they are often tired and tired in the head from bad air.

He is in the 7th grade who has been given a place in the barrack rig.  Elsewhere in the school, all possible rooms are used for teaching.  In the main building, head of department Tomas Reikvam shows news a cramped copy room with no windows.  It is used as a group room.  There is barely enough room for the chairs around the four desks.

On the other wall is a large and strange box made of plywood.  He pushes Reikvam aside and shows what the box hides.  &#8211; There is actually a bathroom there, says Reikvam.  &#8211; This was actually a toilet?  &#8211; This was actually a treatment room for students who need special care.  But there is no space for that now, so we will use it for a group room to have space for all the students who will have their offers, says Reikvam.  Head of department at Storeb\u00f8 school, Tomas Reikvam, says that the facilities in the barrack rig are far from good enough.  Photo: Leif Rune L\u00f8land Must have a tender process The mayor admits that the planning in connection with the school closure, expansion and relocation was not good enough.  A new tender process was started, and the hope was to have a solution ready before the new year.  But barracks for school use are not an off-the-shelf item, according to Storeb\u00f8, and therefore the solution was further away than they hoped for.  &#8211; Now the plan is to get new barracks in place from next school year.  The challenge is to balance the rush with requirements for tender processes, and to do it properly, says Storeb\u00f8.  Furthermore, the plan is for new buildings to be completed and the barracks replaced in 2025. Pupils at Storebu school.

Among those who live there is Helge Olav M\u00f8gster.  He is on Kapital&#8217;s list of the 400 richest in Norway.  The mayor is clear that money is not a major problem in the municipal economy.  But that this case is about bad planning, bad barracks, and requirements for a tender process.  &#8211; Austevoll municipality has good finances, and the board this week has agreed to allow 125 million for the expansion of the school, says the mayor.  They will today carry out CO\u2082 measurement of the indoor climate in the barrack rig to meet the demand from the health authorities.  &#8211; We are working to close the gap, he says.  Bj\u00f8rn Kristian Bj\u00e5nes\u00f8y, head of education, sits in the municipality&#8217;s administration.  He was previously headmaster at Storeb\u00f8 school.  &#8211; I have to admit that I was a little startled myself when I saw how it was, says Bj\u00e5nes\u00f8y.  He says that they still haven&#8217;t really started planning what will come out in the end.  Namely, a permanent extension of Storeb\u00f8 school, without barracks.  &#8211; The situation now is not good.  But we also want to ensure that what we are doing with the expansion is something that can stand for a long time, says the headmaster.  Patrycja S\u00e6le is head of FAU at Storeb\u00f8 school.
