Question:

Written answers

The school referred to by the Deputy is listed among the 122 large-scale projects on the current school building programme for moving to tender and construction over the next 12 to 15 months. The project is for the refurbishment of the existing accommodation and an extension consisting of classrooms and general purpose rooms for the three primary schools on this site.

I understand that owing to rising enrolments, the board of management of the school in question is no longer in a position to accommodate a pre-school facility in its school building. I further understand that the management of the pre-school facility has been advised of this position. The use of school facilities for such purposes is ultimately a matter for the school authority.
