My Department is satisfied that the recent delivery of a project at the school referred to by the Deputy, to provide six new mainstream classrooms and new toilet facilities, provides sufficient accommodation to cater for the schools mainstream requirements. In addition, this now allows for reconfiguration of existing permanent accommodation to meet resource teaching requirements.
In addition I wish to advise the Deputy that my Department approved the provision of a two-class ASD Unit in February of this year which will further improve the facilities at this school.
