Written answers

Minister for Education and Skills

I can confirm to the Deputy that the school in question applied for funding under the Summer Works Scheme, Category 10 - External Environment Works to upgrade the school's play area.

I am pleased to advise the Deputy that my Department is currently assessing the remaining applications, Categories 7-10, under Summer Woks Scheme 2016 - 2017, which will be delivered in 2019. The application from the school in question will be considered in this context.
