The project to which the Deputy refers has been devolved to the National Development Finance Agency (NDFA) for delivery as part of a programme of school building projects.
The brief for this project is to provide an extension and refurbishment to the existing school building to accommodate a long term projected enrolment of 1,000 pupils. The project will also provide a 2 classroom Special Education Needs base for the school.
This school is part of ‘Project Nore’, and I am pleased to inform the Deputy that the tender process for appointing a contractor for ‘Project Nore’ is currently underway.
Following the completion of this tender process and a Departmental review of the Tender Assessment Report, approval for stage 4 construction will follow.
