Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 15 January 2015
203. Deputy Thomas Pringle asked the Minister for Education and Skills if she will provide a breakdown of all departmental funding provided to a school (details supplied) in County Donegal, both capital and revenue, for each of the past five years including the amount and the purpose of the funding; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [1889/15]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department provides capitation funding to all recognised primary schools. The amount of grant paid to an individual primary school for capitation and ancillary services is determined by the school's enrolment, subject to a minimum grant for both capitation and ancillary services in respect of schools with enrolments up to 60, and a maximum ancillary services grant in the case of schools with enrolments of 500 or more.
In 2015 the capitation grant is €170 per pupil, and the Ancillary Services Grant is €147 per pupil. The Deputy may wish to note that Circular 40/2009 clarifies issues relating to the allocation of funding for primary schools. The circular states that capitation funding provided for general running costs and funding provided for caretaking and secretarial services may be regarded as a common grant from which the Board of Management can allocate according to its own priorities. The Minor Works Grant has issued to primary schools with permanent recognition since 1997 with the exception of the school year 2012/2013. The Minor Works Grant must be spent on the physical infrastructure of the school or on items of furniture and equipment for educational use including IT equipment. The following table contains a breakdown of the funding issued to the school to which the Deputy refers in the last five years, as requested.
