View answerMy Department officials continue to work closely with the school authorities to ensure sufficient suitable accommodation is in place for Douglas/Rochestown Educate Together National School for the 2016/2017 school year. In this regard, my Department has recently lodged a planning application to provide additional accommodation for the school. It is envisaged that, subject to planning permission being granted, the school will continue to operate from its current location, while also operate from accommodation on a nearby property.
