The school to which the Deputy refers commenced operation in September 2002 with provisional recognition from the Department on the basis that it would be providing multi-denominational education in the Clontarf/Marino/Fairview area of Dublin. The location in Glasnevin, which is already served by two multi-denominational schools, was intended to be a purely temporary measure.

The Department has requested the OPW to identify a suitable site for the school in a more appropriate location. When this happens, the Department will review the question of permanent recognition.
