April 2018 saw the announcement of the establishment of 42 new schools over the next 4 year period from 2019 to 2022. The 17 schools due to open in Sept 2019 including the school to which the Deputy refers remain on schedule.
A suitable permanent site for the school has been identified in the Belmayne/Clongriffin area and my officials are working to advance matters in that respect so that the school's permanent accommodation can be delivered at the earliest possible date.
In advance of that the school will be established in September 2019 in suitable interim accommodation pending delivery of its permanent school building.
My Department has appointed a Project Manager to assist in the procurement of interim school accommodation for the schools opening in 2019. Work is still ongoing in this regard and due to commercial sensitivities attaching to property matters generally my Department is unfortunately not in a position at present to provide further information on site locations etc. at this time.
However, once the interim location is secured the relevant school authorities will be informed and the details of the location can then be made public.
