As the Deputy may be aware, my Department recently approved the provision of permanent mainstream classroom accommodation at the school to which he refers, to replace prefabricated accommodation in poor condition.

The school subsequently submitted options to my Department to deliver additional specialist accommodation together with the replacement classroom accommodation previously approved. The school's proposal and accommodation requirements are currently being considered and my Department will be in further contact with the school on the matter in the near future.
