Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department is examining the long term projected pupils levels for the school referred to by the Deputy in the context of correspondance provided by the school authorities.
As outlined in the Five Year Plan, the delivery of major school projects required to meet demographic demand will be the main focus for capital investment in the coming years. The Deputy will appreciate that the primary aim at the core of the Five Year Plan, is to ensure that every child will have access to a physical school place.
The progression of a project for the school in question will be considered in the context of that which I have outlined above.
