On the 17 November last I announced the details of the new schools to be provided nationwide in 2017 and 2018.

I also announced that in view of the anticipated number of enrolments in the Irish-medium Aonad of Maynooth Community College and the continued support for a Gaelcholáiste in the North Kildare area that a Gaelcholáiste will be established in 2019 to serve the North Kildare area, subject to sufficient viability of the Aonad. The Gaelcholáiste will open under the joint patronage of Kildare and Wicklow Education and Training Board an An Foras Pátrúnachta.
