Minister for Education and Skills

I wish to advise the Deputy that my Department has approved funding to the school in question to facilitate the construction of two mainstream classrooms. The project has been devolved to the school authority for delivery.

It will be a matter for the school to consider how it will utilise the totality of its accommodation when the new classrooms have been constructed.
