An application for capital funding towards the provision of an extension to provide additional accommodation has been received from the school referred to by the Deputy. In the light of an increase in the enrolments at the school in recent years, a reassessment of the long term projected enrolment, on which the schools accommodation needs are based is required. This reassessment will take into account factors such as current and projected enrolment, and the likely impact of ongoing and proposed housing developments. Once this reassessment is complete, a decision will be taken on how best to provide for the school's accommodation needs. The project will be considered in the context of the School Building and Modernisation Programme 2006-2010.
