102. Deputy Alan Dillon asked the Minister for Education if she will provide an update through her Department's planning and building unit for a school (details supplied) on the proposed additional accommodation project; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [59602/22]
View answerThe school to which the Deputy refers has been granted funding under my Department's Additional School Accommodation (ASA) Scheme. This funding has been devolved to the school authority for delivery and will provide for 4 General classrooms, 1 Construction Studies/Woodwork room, 1 Construction studies/ Woodwork prep area and ancillary accommodation.
A Stage 1/2A Report was submitted in August 2022 and was reviewed by my Department's Professional & Technical (P&T) Team. Comments arising from this review subsequently issued to the school.
The school authority has recently submitted a response to these comments, which is currently being reviewed by the P&T Team. A decision will be conveyed to the school authority as soon as this review has been completed.
