The Department is aware of the accommodation pressures being experienced by the school referred to by the Deputy.

The project at this school has a band rating of 1, the highest priority that the Department assigns to major capital projects.

A permanent site has been identified and is being acquired under the Fingal School Model Agreement.

The progression of the school's major capital project will be considered on an on-going basis in the context of the Department's Multi-Annual School Building and Modernisation Programme and availability of capital resources.
