In July 1983, the authorities of the existing post-primary schools at the centre in question proposed a major change in the community school development which was in the course of architectural planning. This planning had been proceeding on the basis of a proposal which the school authorities had put forward in 1977 and which had been approved. Planning is now in hands for the revised development.
