My Department has received an application for permanent recognition from the school to which the Deputy refers. The application is currently being considered and a decision will be conveyed to the school authority in due course. In the meantime, as with all schools with temporary recognition, the school in question will continue to receive funding for teaching resources commensurate with its enrolment, rental grant-in-aid for its accommodation and school transport for pupils eligible under the School Transport Scheme.
