The delivery of a new school building in Croom has been devolved to Limerick and Clare Education and Training Board (LCETB) under a Service Level Agreement. Full planning permission was granted by Limerick County Council in April 2014 but was subsequently refused following an appeal to An Bord Pleanála. LCETB are working closely with the Local Authority with a view to submitting a new planning application shortly.

The purchase price of the 22 acre site was €2.087m and in addition, the total costs incurred to date for the complete design of the school up to and including approved Stage 2a inclusive of professional fees, site surveys, statutory fees, specialist reports, and planning applications is €416,688.00.
