Minister for Education and Skills

As the Deputy is aware, my Department is currently in the process of acquiring additional land owned by South Dublin County Council adjoining the site of this school. While a building project for this school is not on the current schools building works programme, the additional land offers the potential to enhance current facilities and support future development. There is ongoing engagement with officials from South Dublin County Council on this matter.
