The school to which the Deputy refers was granted approval for the provision of 9 mainstream classrooms under my Department's Devolved SEN Reconfiguration and Modular Accommodation programme. This programme provides project management supports to enable the accommodation to be provided as quickly as possible and helps to ease the administrative workload for individual schools in relation to the management and delivery of the project.
The school authority in question has recently advised that the proposed modular accommodation will require all necessary statutory approvals therefore, extending the timeline for delivery.
The school authority has overall responsibility for delivery of the project, the Department now awaits a post planning report from the school when available in order to progress delivery.
