The building project for the school referred to by the Deputy is currently at an advanced stage of architectural planning. The Design Team are currently working on the Stage 2(b) Submission which will then be submitted to the Department for review. Planning Permission, Disability Access and Fire Safety Certificates have all been secured.

Following approval of the Stage 2b submission and assuming no issues arise the project will then be progressed to tender and construction stage as quickly as possible.
