Question 453: To ask the Minister for Education and Science the way the development of a school (details supplied) can take place in view of the fact that it is being directed to move into temporary quarters in their former site which will be the site of the amalgamated national schools for Rathnew; the reason the school is to move premises twice in a short time in view of the complexity of moving a school and the disruption of the school work; and the time frame for the development of the school.

The site in question is not the planned long term home for the school. Its location there is a temporary arrangement. My Department is aware of the need to provide permanent accommodation for the school and it is in on-going discussions with the local authority and landowners for the purpose of identifying and acquiring a suitable site as quickly as possible to enable this to happen. It is not possible at this stage to say when construction will commence on the project referred to by the Deputy.
