I can confirm that the school to which the Deputy refers applied to my Department for major capital works. The application was assessed in accordance with published prioritisation criteria for large scale projects and assigned a band 2 rating.
The project was included in the Ministerial announcement on 16 February 2010 to appoint a design team this year.
Subsequently, the Department's technical staff conducted a site suitability assessment in May of this year and some issues raised as a result of the visit are now being addressed with the school authority.
