Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Education and Skills if a school (details supplied) in County Kerry will be permitted and enabled to carry out the full planned expansion now in one phase rather than partially in two phases; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

View answerAs the Deputy will be aware the school referred to was approved a devolved grant in June 2014 to provide an additional two mainstream classrooms.
The school in question reverted to my Department in late October seeking an increase in funding for additional mainstream classroom accommodation. In that regard, my Department has sought additional information from the school and when this is received, the matter will be considered further. Officials from my Department will be in direct contact with the school authorities when a decision has been reached.
