As the Deputy will be aware, my Department provided significant funding to the school in question last September to construct four mainstream classrooms and ancillary accommodation. I understand that planning permission has been granted for this development. The school has recently sought further funding for additional works. The request is currently being considered and a decision will be conveyed to the school authority when this process has been completed.
