The Commission on School Accommodation published two reports in September 2001; namely the Amalgamation of First Level Schools and Amalgamation of Second Level Schools. These reports present a framework of key issues and recommends detailed models for the amalgamation process together with other recommendations on dealing with amalgamations in the future. The recommendations in the report are incorporated in the best practice in dealing with amalgamation within the Department.

The Report is available on my Department's website www.education.ie.
