The project referred to by the Deputy has recently been approved to proceed to Stage 3 which involves the tender competition for appointment of the building contractor. The school and its design team have been informed.

The tender stage for any major project normally takes between four and six months to complete. The school and its design team have been asked to ensure that tenders are received as early as possible. My Department awaits confirmation from the school and its design team in this regard. It is anticipated that construction will start early in 2017.
