The detailed data sought for the specific area in question are being compiled. I will arrange for the data to be sent to the Deputy directly.
In relation to overall school provision in that area the position is that with the addition of both planned and recently delivered infrastructural provision in the north Kildare area, the existing schools between them are expected to be able to cater for the overall level of demand for places. This may result in pupils not obtaining a place of first choice.
The Department is not in a position to duplicate provision in such areas in light of the demand on a nationwide basis to provide some 152,000 extra school places to ensure that every child in the country has access to a physical school place in the coming years.
