The education sector's hopeful further investment into school classrooms is on the way. 

New data shows 368 state schools had more students enrolled than their official classroom capacity last year – almost 1500 are at capacity. 

Education Minister Erica Stanford announced $100 million for school property, with new schools and classrooms in Auckland. 

PPTA President Chris Abercrombie told Ryan Bridge it's got to be supercharged, so more schools can get re-locatable classrooms when they need them. 

He says schools are trying to find interesting solutions to the problem – he's heard of one using a Masonic Lodge over the road to help.
