The school referred to by the Deputy has been assigned for delivery under my Department's Design and Build Programme. This delivery programme uses a professional external Project Manager to progress the project through the relevant stages of architectural planning and construction. The project is currently in the Architectural Planning phase with site surveys completed. A pre-planning meeting that had been scheduled for 13th March 2020 was cancelled due to Covid-19.
When planning is secured, the project will proceed to tender and construction.
Pending the delivery of the permanent accommodation the Patron Body has been advised that the Department will be providing interim start-up accommodation on the campus of Notre Dame school for the school to open in September 2020.
