An application for an extension has been received from the school to which the Deputy refers.

An assessment of projected enrolments, demographic trends and housing developments in the area, is currently underway in my Department and will assist in determining the long term projected enrolment for the school on which the school's long term accommodation needs will be based. When the longterm projected enrolment has been finalised and agreed with the school authorities my Department will draw up schedules of accommodation for the project which will be considered in the context of the School Building and Modernisation Programme 2006-2010.
