Amharc ar fhreagraThe project to which the Deputy refers is to provide an eight classroom extension and general refurbishment, with provision for a new General Purpose room and additional play area.
The project has reached an advanced stage of architectural planning, Stage 2b, which involves securing the statutory approvals and the preparation of tender documents. The Design Team is currently working on completing the Stage 2b submission.
When the Stage 2(b) submission has been submitted and approved, my Department will revert to the Board of Management at that time with regard to the further progression of the project to tender and construction.
