In view of the financial constraints imposed by the need, as outlined in the Five Year Plan, to prioritise available funding for the provision of essential additional school places to meet demographic demand, my Department is not in a position to provide an indicative timeframe for progression of a major capital project at this time.
However, my Department is finalising a decision in relation to the schools immediate accommodation requirements and in that regard will be in touch with the school authorities in question very shortly.
In the meantime, I am pleased to advise that the school was included on the list of successful schools under the Summer Works scheme for 2014 which I published on 20th March last.
