I assume the school referred to by the Deputy is that serving part of the Dublin 15 area. The brief for the building project is to construct a new 24-classroom primary school to cater for a projected long-term enrolment of 600 pupils. In addition, my Department has entered into a co-funding agreement with the Local Authority to provide additional community facilities on the school site, which will greatly enhance the indoor recreational area available to the school population and to the wider community. An architectural design team will be appointed to the building project this month, with an instruction to progress the project as quickly as possible.
