In the light of increases in enrolments in the school, the Department conducted a re-evaluation of the long term projected enrolments for the required project. A revised long term projected enrolment figure of 1000 pupils has recently been agreed with the Vocational Educational Committee. Progress on the proposed building project will be considered in the context of the School Building and Modernisation Programme from 2007 onwards.
