A major project for the school to which the Deputy refers was included on the work programme for 2011, which was announced on 24 January 2011.
The project brief has now been agreed with the School Management. The next stage involves the appointment of a Design Team and this process is expected to commence shortly. All large scale building projects, including this project, will be considered within the context of my Department's multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme. In light of current competing demands on the capital budget of my Department, it is not possible to give an indicative timeframe for the completion of the project at this time.
The current status of all projects on the school building programme, including this project, may be viewed on my Department's website at www.education.ie and this will be updated regularly throughout the year.
