In August 2007, the City of Dublin Vocational Educational Committee (CDVEC) became the anchor tenant of the school referred to by the Deputy. It ceased operating as a post primary school on the 31 August 2007.

Currently, part of the accommodation is being used by CDVEC to accommodate Post Leaving Certificate (PLC) courses operated by Coláiste Dhulaigh. In addition, Killester College has temporarily moved into the premises while its own accommodation is being developed.

It is proposed to set up an autistic unit in the school from September 2009 and St. Michael's House is currently at the design stage in establishing these facilities.
