Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy is aware, a building project for the school in question is included in my Department's 6 year Construction Programme.
In the context of progressing the project, a school site visit, by my Department's technical staff, has been undertaken. The next step includes devising the schedules of accommodation, for purposes of the school's project brief and this process is in train.
In that regard, as a phase one of the major project, my Department has approved in principle the provision of additional accommodation, consisting of eight permanent general classrooms, to meet the school's immediate need. The school authorities are aware of the position.
