The project to which the Deputy refers is part of a campus project and has been devolved for delivery under the patronage of CEIST. The brief for the project includes the delivery of a 16 classroom Primary School with 2 classroom SEN base, GP room, library and other ancillary accommodation.
The project is currently at Stage 2a of the architectural planning design process. At a recent meeting with the Department, a Stage 2a addendum report was requested from the delivery body to address the comments and recommendations expressed by the Departments Professional & Technical Team.
Once this is received, reviewed and approved, the project will then move to Stage 2b which allows for detailed design/planning, obtaining the necessary statutory permissions and the preparation of tender documents. The project will then move onward to Tender and Construction in due course.
As the project is at an early stage in the delivery process, it is not possible at this time to give a date for its completion. However Ceist as the patron body, will continue to engage directly with the school authority to keep it fully informed of progress.
