The Department has agreed to the provision of a new 36-classroom school building to cater for an amalgamation of two schools including the school referred to by the Deputy. The project to provide the new school is in architectural planning and is currently at stage 2b (detailed design) of the planning process.

The progression of all large scale building projects including this project will be considered in the context of the Department's multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme. It is not possible to give an indicative timeframe for the progression of the project at this time.
