679. Deputy Emer Currie asked the Minister for Education the projected number of junior infant enrolments in Dublin 15 and in Dublin west in September 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2029, tabular form. [11807/25]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe requested data are set out in the table. The most recent demographic exercise projects junior infants out to 2027.
In order to plan for school provision and analyse the relevant demographic data, my department divides the country into 314 school planning areas and uses a geographical information system, using data from a range of sources, including CSO census data, child benefit and school enrolment data, to identify where the pressure for school places across the country will arise and where additional school accommodation is needed at primary and post-primary level.
