My Department approved funding for the school referred to under the Additional School Accommodation (ASA) scheme for 1 x Mainstream Classroom and 1 x Special Education Needs base. The delivery of the project was devolved to the School Authority who appointed a design team to progress the project. My Department approved the design report submitted by the Design Team to progress to Planning.
However, the school authority subsequently requested funding for an additional classroom and this was also approved by my Department. The school submitted a new design (stage 1/2a) report which encompassed the additional classroom. The completion of the review of this new report by my Department's professional and technical officials is nearing completion and the resulting recommendations will be shared directly with the School Authority.
