It is my Department's intention to increase capacity at the school to which the Deputy refers to 1,000 pupil places.

The progression of all large scale building projects, including this project, from initial design stage through to construction phase will be considered in the context of my Department's multi-annual School Building and Modernisation Programme. However, in light of current competing demands on the capital budget of the Department, it is not possible to give an indicative timeframe for the progression of the project at this time.

The school to which the Deputy refers shares a campus with another school. It is my Department's intention to provide each of these schools with 20 classrooms.
