The schools referred to by the Deputy are part of a major building project to provide a new 24 classroom school building for Athenry Amalgamated NS which will be delivered under my Department's ADAPT Programme. ADAPT is an acronym for the "Accelerated Delivery of Architectural Planning and Tendering".
The ADAPT programme uses a professional external Project Manager to co-ordinate and drive the Design Team to achieve the best possible timeframe for the project through the stages of Architectural Planning to Tender and Construction.
The tender process to appoint a Design Team for the project will be commencing shortly.
My Department will keep the school authorities informed of the progression of these appointments as they proceed.
