317. Deputy Danny Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Education the status of an application by a school (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [32648/23]
View answerI can confirm to the Deputy that my Department has recently received an application for capital funding, under the Additional School Accommodation (ASA) scheme, from Knocknagree National School, Mallow, Co. Cork.
The purpose of the ASA scheme is to ensure that essential mainstream and special education classroom accommodation is available to cater for pupils enrolled each year and where the need cannot be met by the school’s existing accommodation.
The ASA application is currently being assessed and when this is completed the school authority will be notified of the decision.
