Minister for Education and Skills

As the Deputy is aware, a building project for the school to which he refers is included in my Department's 6 Year Construction Programme.  In the context of progressing the building project, my Department has undertaken a site visit to the school. The schedule of accommodation is currently being devised and will be provided to the patron, Kildare Wicklow Education Training Board (KWETB), when completed.

The building project will be devolved to KWETB for delivery and it is my Department's intention to engage with KWETB shortly in this regard.
