View answerPhase 1 of a 1000 pupil second level school referred to by the Deputy proceeded to tender and construction in 2013. This phase of the project is currently on site and is nearing completion. Phase 2 of the project is currently at an early stage of Architectural Planning - Stage 1 which is the initial sketch Design Stage.
