Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 7 February 2024
165. Deputy Réada Cronin asked the Minister for Education for an update on the status of the proposed new post-primary school at St. Farnan’s, Prosperous, promised since 2015; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [4959/24]
View answerThe project to which the Deputy refers has been devolved for delivery to Kildare & Wicklow Education and Training Board (KWETB).
It is currently at Stage 2b of the process, which allows for detailed design/planning, obtaining the necessary statutory permissions and the preparation of tender documents. When this stage is finalised, the next stage is tendering for a contractor and then onwards to construction, in due course.
While at this early stage it is not possible to provide a timeline for completion of the project, KWETB will be engaging directly with the school to keep it informed of progress.
