I wish to advise the Deputy that the school to which he refers has been allocated funding under my Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme to provide an additional mainstream classroom and accommodation for an ASD class. The final approval letter issued on 17th May last.

Subsequently, my Department received an appeal from the school referred to, seeking approval for the provision of further classroom accommodation. The appeal is currently under consideration and a decision will be conveyed to the school authority as soon as this process is finalised.
