Question:

94. Deputy Aindrias Moynihan asked the Minister for Education and Skills when a school (details supplied) will be notified of the outcome of its application under the summer works scheme. [8633/16]

Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

I can confirm that the school referred to by the Deputy has made an application under my Department's Summer Works Scheme 2016 -2017.

Commensurate with the level of funding available for the Scheme, applications including that from the school concerned, will be assessed on a top down basis in accordance with the prioritisation criteria outlined in the governing Circular Letter for the Scheme. This Circular Letter (0055/2015), is available on my Department's website www.education.ie. It is my intention to publish a list of successful applicants shortly.
