The Developing Areas Unit of the Department is in receipt of an application for major capital works from the school to which the Deputy refers. This application was assessed and assigned a Band 3 rating according to the published prioritisation criteria. Earlier this year, the Department asked the school to complete an updated application for major capital works to reflect expanding enrolments. This application will be re-assessed in the context of rapidly developing areas and the proposed project will be considered in the context of the school building and modernisation programme.
