I propose to take Questions Nos. 528 and 587 together.
An application for the provision of additional classroom accommodation at Inchicore girls national school is being processed in the planning section of my Department at present. The school authorities will be contacted as soon as a decision is taken in the matter.
A case has been made by the school for the allocation of a concessionary teaching post to address problems of educational disadvantage in the school. I can assure the Deputies that the needs of this school will be fully considered in the event of additional posts becoming available for allocation to schools in disadvantaged areas.
