The school building project for the school referred to be the Deputy has been assigned for delivery under my Department's Design and Build programme.  The brief for this project is a 16 classroom school with 2 classroom SEN.  The project is currently in architectural planning.  Site surveys have commenced in advance of preparing the Planning Application which will be the next key milestone in the progression of the project.  Once all statutory approvals have been secured, the project will proceed to tender and construction stages.
