The school to which the Deputy refers is currently in rented accommodation. The need for playground facilities is a matter for the school authorities to discuss with the property owners.

The Department is aware of the need to provide a permanent home for the school. It is examining options in this regard, although there has been some difficulty in obtaining alternative, suitable accommodation in the area where the school is located. The Department will be in direct contact with the school authority when it has identified a viable option which it can proceed with in the context of competing demands on its capital budget.
