I am pleased to inform the Deputy that a devolved grant was approved to the school under the Department’s Additional Accommodation Scheme 2020 to purchase one mainstream prefabricated classroom which I can confirm is currently at construction. The delivery of the project has been devolved to the School Authority.
With regard to the Major Project, I am pleased to advise that Waterford and Wexford Education and Training Board (WWETB) has been appointed to deliver this project. The Department can confirm that a Design Team has been appointed and is currently preparing a Stage 1 (preliminary design) report.
It is not possible at this early stage to provide a timeline for completion of the project, however WWETB will be engaging directly with the school authority to keep it fully informed of progress.
