As part of the expansion of the devolved scheme for primary school building works, a grant of €200,000 was sanctioned in 2004 to enable the management authorities of the school in question to extend and refurbish the school. The initiative allows Boards of Management to address their accommodation needs and building priorities with a guaranteed amount of funding and gives Boards of Management control of the building project. An official from the school Building Section of my Department has been in contact with the school management and they will be submitting an appeal for additional funding. This appeal will be treated as a matter of urgency and a decision conveyed to the school management at an early date.
