Where does it say in the MVA that the speed limit remains reduced until the back of the other sign?

Schools and playgrounds
147 (1) A person driving a vehicle on a regular school day and on a highway where signs are displayed stating a speed limit of 30 km/h, or on which the numerals "30" are prominently shown, must drive at a rate of speed not exceeding 30 km/h while approaching or passing the school building and school grounds to which the signs relate, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., or subject to subsection (1.1), between any extended times that are stated on the signs.

Once you've passed the school grounds, you're free to speed up. You don't have to wait for the back of the next sign.
The same should apply to construction zones. Once you've passed the area where work is taking place, you should be able to speed up.
