As the Deputy will be aware, a project for the school referred is included in my Department’s 6 Year Capital Programme and is scheduled to proceed to tender and construction in 2018.
Officials from my Department recently advised the school’s Board of Management and the Patron’s representative that following a technical examination of an alternative site being made available by the School Patron, it has been decided that a new school building will be provided for the school referred to by the Deputy on that site. A Schedule of Accommodation and a project brief is currently being finalised. My Department will continue to liaise with the school authorities in relation to advancing this school project into the Architectural Planning process.
