Amharc ar fhreagraI am pleased to inform the Deputy that the school referred to was approved funding under My Department’s Additional School Accommodation (ASA) Scheme for 1 mainstream classroom and 1 SEN base, with delivery of the project devolved to the school authority.
A design team was appointed and the project was approved to progress to planning. Subsequently, the school requested an additional classroom be provided which was also approved by the Department. The school has submitted a Stage 1/2a report which includes the additional classroom, which is now currently under review. The review is nearing completion and the outcome will be conveyed to the school authority shortly.
I trust that this clarifies the situation.
