The building project for the school referred to by the Deputy is at an advanced stage of architectural planning. The new school will cater for up to 1,000 pupils. The Stage 3 submission has recently been received in my Department and is currently under review. My Officials will contact the Developers when the review is complete with directions as to the next steps involved in progressing this project. It is expected that application for planning permission will be lodged shortly and that the school will be ready for occupancy in September 2009.
