The 5-Year Plan that I announced in March last as part of a €2 billion capital investment programme, outlines the major school projects that are scheduled to commence construction over the duration of the Plan. These have been prioritised on the basis of meeting significant demographic needs.
I am pleased to inform the Deputy that there are six Post-Primary school projects for Kildare included in the Plan; two new schools for Maynooth (one replacement), one new school for both Naas and Celbridge, an extension project for St. Conleth's in Newbridge, and a replacement school for St. Paul's in Monasterevin. The current status of all projects on the school building programme may be viewed on my Department's website at www.education.ie and this will be updated regularly throughout the year.
