My Department has approved a new 24 classroom school and ancillary accommodation for the school to which the Deputy refers. This project is currently at Stage 2b of the architectural planning process (detailed design). As a matter of policy, my Department does not provide cost estimates for individual projects as this might prejudice the tendering process. Further progression of this project will be considered in the context of my Department's Multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme.
