I wish to advise the Deputy that the school in question is co-located in a permanent building with another school in Kilbarrack. This arrangement is possible due to declining enrolments in the other school.
I also wish to advise the Deputy that my Department provided funding to the school last November to re-configure its existing accommodation to facilitate the delivery of additional subjects.
Given the need to meet demographic growth, the delivery of new schools together with extension projects to meet future demand will be the main focus of the Department's budget for the coming years. My Department considers that the school's accommodation needs can be met in the current building for the foreseeable future.
