Question:

188. Deputy Tom Neville asked the Minister for Education and Skills his views on a matter regarding a school (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [27611/18]

Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

I wish to advise the Deputy that in 2017 my Department approved the provision of three special education teaching rooms at the school referred to.  These have yet to be delivered. 

In addition, my Department recently received an application for the provision of additional mainstream classroom accommodation.   I wish to advise that my Department has approved the provision of temporary accommodation, to meet an immediate mainstream classroom requirement.  This decision was advised to the school authorities.
