The current NDP, as part of Project Ireland 2040 framework, provides for €8.8bn investment in schools during the period 2018 to 2027. The increased investment under the NDP is positioning the State to focus on adding and modernising capacity in the school system.
During the NDP period 2018-2020, there were 526 completed building projects under the Large Scale Capital Programme (LSCP) and the Additional School Accommodation Scheme (ASA). These projects delivered in excess of 48,000 school places, including permanent accommodation for 229 special classes; and additional capacity for 67 classrooms in 14 special schools throughout the country. Of the 526 school building projects completed in 2018-2020, 13 of these projects delivered were in County Clare.

The Department has a significant existing pipeline of projects to be delivered over the coming years to meet capacity needs managed under the Large Scale Capital Programme and the Additional School Accommodation Scheme. Overall there are 28 projects are in County Clare. 10 of these projects are on the Large Scale Capital Programme. 3 of these projects are at site acquisition or brief stage, 4 are at detailed design stage, and 3 are on site. There are a further 18 projects on the Additional Accommodation Scheme.
I have made arrangement for the details of these 28 school building projects to be forwarded directly to the Deputy.
There here are currently 5 applications currently being assessed by officials under the Additional Scheme a decision will be conveyed directly to the school when this process has been completed.
