View answerThe school building project for the school referred to by the Deputy is included in my Department’s Construction Programme as part of a campus project comprising two post-primary schools and one primary school.
The project for the school in question will deliver a 1,000 pupil post-primary school and accommodation, including 6 classrooms, for children with special educational needs.
The project will be delivered under my Department's ADAPT Programme which uses a professional external Project Manager to co-ordinate and drive the Design Team to achieve the best possible timeframe for the project through the stages of Architectural Planning, to Tender and Construction.
My Department will keep the school and its patron body informed of the progression of this project.
