I wish to confirm to the Deputy that my Department is in receipt of an application from the school in question under the Summer Works Scheme.

Commensurate with the level of funding available for the Scheme, applications including that from the school concerned, will be assessed on a top down basis in accordance with the prioritisation criteria outlined in the governing Circular Letter for the Scheme. This Circular Letter (0055/2015), is available on my Department's website www.education.ie.

It is my intention to publish a list of successful applicants in due course.
