I wish to advise the Deputy that the school referred to has not submitted an application for additional accommodation to my Department.

My Department's over riding objective is to prioritise available funding to meet demographic demand and to provide essential classroom accommodation where additional teachers are approved. In that context, it is open to the school in question to make an application for additional accomodation to meet increasing enrolments.
