506. Deputy Jennifer Carroll MacNeill asked the Minister for Education if she will approve a request for extra funding for a school (details supplied) in order that it can proceed with the necessary development; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [12883/21]
View answerI can confirm to the Deputy that this school was granted approval and funding to construct 1 mainstream classroom and 4 Special Education Rooms (prefab replacement) under the Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme in October 2018.
A Tender report was received by the Department in February 2021. It was noted that additional funding would be required for this project and this request is currently under review. The School Authorities will be advised of the Department's decision regarding this matter in due course.
