I propose to take Questions Nos. 15 and 57 together. I am pleased to inform the Deputies that it is my intention to provide for general purpose rooms in all new primary school building projects in respect of schools of four classrooms or more. This will include those projects in the 1994 capital programme.
Where general purpose facilities currently exist, additional classroom provision will be made for an expanding school of four or more class teachers so that the use of the general purpose room as a classroom will not be necessary.
Also, where a school currently has four class teachers but projected enrolments indicate that it will have three teachers in the long term, the project will provide for a general purpose size classroom in addition to three permanent classrooms.
The National Council for Curriculum and Assessment is carrying out a review of the primary curriculum, and will advise me on any revisions to the programme which might be necessary to ensure that all pupils receive an adequate level of physical education.
