The school referred to by the Deputy has been approved a project for the provision of seven general mainstream classrooms and a 2 special education needs base under my Department's Additional School Accommodation scheme.
The project has been devolved to the school authority for delivery and they have appointed a design team to progress the project through the various architectural stages. The Department is currently awaiting the submission of the stage 2b architectural report from the school authority. Upon receipt, the Department will review the report from both a technical and cost perspective including the school's requirements for temporary accommodation to facilitate the progression of the project. The Department will engage directly with school authority in this regard in order to provide practical assistance and advice on the submission of the stage 2b report.
