An application for an extension including mainstream classrooms and ancillary accommodation has been received from the school referred to by the Deputy.

An assessment of projected enrolments, demographic trends and housing developments in the area will need to be carried out. This assessment 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 long-term projected enrolment has been finalised and agreed with the school authorities the Department will draw up schedules of accommodation for the project which will be notified to the school management authority. The project will then be considered in the context of the multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme.
