I can confirm that my Department has received an application for major capital funding for the provision of an extension for the school referred to by the Deputy. The application has been assessed and has been assigned a band 2.1 rating under the prioritisation criteria for large scale projects.

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 the 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.
