View answerMy Department's Planning and Building Unit is currently assessing its work programme and priorities for 2023 in the context of its available funding. Key priorities for the Department's work programme include continuing strong delivery to support the operation of the school system with particular regard to planning ahead for the 2023/24 school year and beyond and also with particular regard to supporting special educational needs provision.
The school in question is among the many accommodation needs across the country being considered as part of this process. My officials will be in touch with the school authorities directly in this regard as soon as possible.
