The building project is being delivered under my Department's Design & Build programme.  This delivery programme uses a professional external Project Management team to progress the project through the stages of architectural planning, tendering and construction. 

An application for Planning Permission in respect of the works was submitted to Cork County Council on 26th September 2019.  As with all school building projects, the exact timeframe for delivery of the school will be dependent on the grant of planning permission.

The schools Board of Management will be kept informed of progress by my Department's officials.
