The school to which the Deputy refers received funding under the 2007 Small Schools Scheme. The school's original grant under the scheme was increased following an appeal for further funding to meet unavoidable extra costs.

This school made an application under the SWS 2009 for a number of projects. However, their original application was not successful. The school submitted an appeal of this decision, which is under consideration at present. The school has been contacted for additional information relating to their appeal and, when this is received, the appeal will be considered further and the school informed directly of the outcome.
