Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 29 September 2004
520 Mr. O’Connor asked the Minister for Education and Science if his Department will undertake an evaluation of the second level school needs of the Tallaght region; if sufficient school places are available for current and future populations; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22280/04]
View answerMy Department has no plans currently to undertake an evaluation of second level provision in the Tallaght area. Pupil enrolments at second level schools in the Tallaght area are in general decline and I am satisfied there are sufficient school places to meet current and anticipated future demand. My Department will, however, continue to monitor school accommodation requirements in the Tallaght area to ensure that any emerging needs are addressed.
