Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

My Department is currently analysing the latest demographic data on a nationwide basis to determine where additional school accommodation might be needed from 2015 onwards. This process includes an examination of the Prosperous area. When this exercise has been completed arrangements will be made to make additional accommodation available where it is needed.
