      History

      R.F. Lawton was appointed Superintendent of Architectural Services in late 1967 with responsibility for the School Planning and Building Research Section and the School Plant Approvals Section. Architectural Services was part of the School Business Administration Branch of the Department of Education. When the Department of Education was reorganized as the Ministry of Education in 1972 the Architectural Services Section became part of the School Business and Finance Branch. In 1979, the Architectural Services Section was transferred to the new Grants Policy Branch. Architects from the disbanded Institutional Accounting and Architectural Services Branch of the Ministry of Colleges and Universities were also transferred to the Architectural Services Section at this time. Responsibility for approvals was transferred to the Architecture-Finance Section of the Financial Services Branch, but was transferred back to the Architectural Services Section in 1981. In 1984, the Architectural Services Section became part of the re-established School Business and Finance Branch.

      In 1989, the Architectural Services Section was renamed School Capital Program Section. The School Capital Program Section became part of the Ministry of Education and Training in 1993. Later that same year the Section was renamed Capital Program Section and moved to the new Capital and Operating Grants Administration Branch.
