I propose to take Questions Nos. 129 to 132, inclusive, together.

Following amalgamations and/or closures of schools in 2012, there are currently 860 schools included in DEIS providing education for 165,350 children.

The breakdown is as follows:

197 DEIS Band 1 and 144 DEIS Band 2 Primary Schools with total enrolment of 76,845.324 DEIS Rural schools – with enrolment of 23,750.195 DEIS Post-Primary schools – with enrolment of 64,755.
