The application from the school in question is being considered as part of a review of all projects which did not proceed to construction under the 2004 schools building programme. Under the review, all projects are being assessed against the published prioritisation criteria which were revised earlier this year following consultation with the education partners. Each project will be assigned a band rating and the progress of all projects will be considered in the context of the school building programme from 2005 onwards.
