A building project to provide an extension at the school to which the Deputy refers, is currently under construction.

Tests have shown that some of the blocks used in the construction of the extension are defective. The Department and its design team is currently considering proposals from the main contractor to carry out remedial works to address the defects in accordance with the terms of the Public Works Contract under which the Contractor was appointed.

The school authority and it's patron body, are being kept fully informed of all discussions with the contractor regarding the remedial works required.
