As the Deputy may be aware, a new 8 classroom major capital building project is currently being provided by my Department for the school in question.

On completion of the project, the school will have access to a General Purpose room within the new school building and also to an external space that will comprise a ball court and a separate junior play area which is considered adequate. Grant aid is not available to purchase the additional land referred to by the Deputy.
