An upward trend in enrolment in recent years at the school referred to by the Deputy has necessitated a review by my Department of demographic trends, housing developments and enrolment trends in the area in order to ensure that any capital funding provided will deliver accommodation appropriate to the school's need into the future. Upon completion of this assessment a decision will be conveyed to the school on how best to provide for the school's long term accommodation needs. The project will then be considered in the context of the School Building and Modernisation Programme 2006-2010.
