Açıklama
The correct phrase is "enough equipment." In English, "equipment" is a collective noun, and when referring to more than one item, you use the same form "equipment" without adding an "s" at the end. Therefore, the correct sentence is:
"The new school is not provided with enough equipment for science practicals."
Using "equipments" or any other variations would be grammatically incorrect.
