My Department is currently planning to install modular accommodation for the school referred to by the Deputy on the site identified. There are also contingency measures being looked into should the interim accommodation not be ready for the upcoming academic year. One contingency option is that the school may be split over two locations, which if it happens should be for a short term solution and my Department will assist the school in making the necessary arrangements to facilitate parents only having to make one school drop off.

My Department is currently looking into all options and will continue to keep the patron and school authority informed of all developments relating to the school's accommodation.
