As the Deputy is aware, the school in question has submitted an application to my Department for capital funding for additional school accommodation. My Department has discussed the matter with the school and I understand that the school has indicated that the school site is constrained in terms of additional accommodation. 

My Department will continue to liaise with the school authorities regarding the options available, including the other site referred to, in assisting the school to meet both its immediate and long term accommodation needs.
