I can confirm to the Deputy that the school in question was approved to enter the department’s pipeline of school buildings under my department's Additional Schools Accommodation (ASA) Scheme to provide 1 SET room.
The project has been devolved for delivery to the school authority. A Stage 3 (tender report) has been received by my department which has been reviewed from both a technical and cost perspective in accordance with the requirements of the Public Spending Code. All projects, including this one, undergo the necessary due diligence outlined in the public Infrastructure Guidelines
The outcome of this review process has been completed and will be communicated with the school authority regarding the next steps to advance this significant project shortly.
