The building project for the new post primary school to serve Carpenterstown/Castleknock is included in my Department’s six-year construction programme.
Officials in my Department continue to liaise with officials in Fingal County Council in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding in relation to the identification and acquisition of a suitable location for the school and have identified a preferred site option within the Carpenterstown/Castleknock School Planning Areas. Negotiations with the landowner in respect of this proposed acquisition are currently ongoing.
Due to commercial sensitivities relating to site acquisitions, generally I am not in a position to provide further details at this time but the school patron will be informed of the proposed location for the school as soon as it is possible to do so.
