My Department provides funding to all recognised schools in the Free Education Scheme by way of per capita grants. The two main grants are the Capitation grant to cater for day to day running costs including heating, lighting etc. and the Ancillary grants to cater for the cost of employing ancillary services staff.

These supports are made available to all recognised primary and post-primary schools in the free education sector.  There is no funding for any private educational establishments outside of these categories such as the school referred to by the Deputy.
