Written answers

The major building project for the school referred to by the Deputy will deliver a new 1,000 pupil post-primary school and accommodation, including two classrooms, for children with special educational needs. The project is being delivered under my Department's Design and Build programme in two phases.

The school commenced operation in the completed Phase 1 of the new school building in September 2022, which accommodates some 500 pupils and includes temporary accommodation for children with special educational needs.

The project for Phase 2 of the new school is currently at tender stage. Once a Contractor has been appointed, it is anticipated that construction will commence shortly thereafter.

My Department will continue to keep the school and its patron body updated as the project progresses.
