I can confirm for the Deputy that my Department approved funding for additional classroom accommodation and an Autism Spectrum Disorder unit to the school in question.

The school has since reverted to my Department with a request for additional funding for the project. The request will be considered by my Department and a decision will be conveyed to the school authorities as soon as this process is finalised.
