The Deputy will be aware that a building project for the school in question is included in my Department's 6 year Construction Programme.

Preparatory work has been initiated to advance the project and my Department will continue to liaise directly with the school authority concerned in the context of progressing the project through the architectural planning process.

In the meantime, my Department recently approved funding to the school for interim temporary accommodation to cater for additional student numbers, including those with special educational needs.
