I submitted the question. I will give the Minister the kernel of it. The school got an additional accommodation grant but it is a total refurbishment of the school. The problem is that every one of the students has to be taken out of the school and there is no place locally to put them. The Department has said it must find its own accommodation to put them in temporarily for about six months. It is an impossible task. Funding is also a problem. The school is looking for the Department to provide temporary accommodation during the construction period to allow the school to function in a rural area while refurbishment works go ahead and to fund it.
