I wish to confirm to the Deputy that the school in question has recently submitted an application to my Department for capital funding for additional school accommodation. The application will be considered and a decision will be conveyed to the school authority as soon as the assessment process has been completed.

I also wish to advise the Deputy that my Department provided significant funding to the school in 2015 to construct four classrooms and the project is now nearing completion.
