The Department is aware of the developing nature of Navan town which is the subject of five Local Area Development Plans. The Department is in regular contact with Meath County Council in relation to the rate and pace of housing developments in Navan and, in part, with the assistance of this information, it is currently reviewing educational provision in the town with a view to taking decisions in the near future on the extent and timing of the delivery of any extra primary and post primary provision required.
