Written answers

The Major Project at the school referred to by the Deputy is at Stage 1 of architectural planning which entails preliminary design of site and location suitability and initial sketch scheme.

A revised Stage 1 submission, including an up to date cost plan, was requested from the Design Team following an increase in the schedule of accommodation to cater for up to 1200 pupils. That submission has been received and is currently being reviewed by my Department.

The review is nearing completion and my Department will then be in contact with the Board of Management of the school to advise as to the progression of the project. This project is included on the Department’s six year school building program to commence construction in the period 2019 – 2021.
