I can confirm to the Deputy, that my Department is in receipt of an application for the Additional School Accommodation Scheme (ASA) from the school in question.
The purpose of the ASA scheme is to ensure that essential mainstream classroom and Special Education Needs (SEN) accommodation is available to cater for pupils enrolled each year, where the need cannot be met by the school’s existing accommodation.
Once the application has been assessed by my officials, the school authority will be contacted directly with a decision.
