Both schools referred to by the Deputy have submitted applications for major capital funding to my Department. These applications have been assessed in accordance with the published prioritisation criteria with the Education Partners and have been assigned a band rating.

Schedules of accommodation to meet the current and projected accommodation needs of one of the schools have been drawn up by my Department. In relation to the second school, a more thorough assessment of their long term accommodation needs is required to determine the extent of their accommodation needs. Both projects will be considered in the context of the School Building and Modernisation Programme 2006-2010.
