My Department met with the schools authorities recently to discuss both this schools short term and long term accommodation issues. Further to this meeting, an initial technical site visit was undertaken and arrangements have been agreed with the school for the provision of temporary accommodation to meet the schools immediate accommodation needs.

I also wish to advise the Deputy that, in order to address the schools long term accommodation needs, it has been agreed with the school authorities that a project for the long term redevelopment of the school will be progressed in to architectural planning. In that context, it is intended to carry out a further more detailed technical site visit at the school in question shortly.
