Amharc ar fhreagraResponsibility for the delivery of a new 16 classroom school referred to by the Deputy has been devolved to the Office of Public Works.
The project is at the early stages of architectural planning and is one of the school projects approved to proceed to construction in 2014/2015. My Department officials are currently assessing options in relation to off-site accommodation that will be required to facilitate the delivery of the school.
When construction will commence will be dependent on the progress of the project through the various stages of design and the local authority planning process.
