Under the terms of my Department's Post Primary School Transport Scheme children are eligible for school transport where they reside not less than 4.8 kilometres from and are attending their nearest education centre as determined by my Department/Bus Éireann, having regard to ethos and language.

The school referred to by the Deputy is not currently classified as an All-Irish school for the purposes of assessing school transport eligibility.

The status of the school is being clarified with Donegal Education and Training Board.
