On a more local issue, I recently visited Christian Brothers Secondary School, New Ross, which has approximately 400 boys and girls attending it. The building the school is in has been there since 1926. While there have been some extensions to classrooms, and four new classrooms are going to be delivered imminently, one of the issues the school highlighted to me is that it is the only secondary school in County Wexford that does not have any access to a PE hall. Currently, the Department of education does not operate a funding scheme to deliver PE halls because investment is being prioritised for the delivery and refurbishment of classrooms. While I can understand that in areas where there is significant demand for extra classrooms, will the Department consider operating a small scheme whereby schools that have no access to existing PE halls will have access through a designated capital part as part of the national development plan?
