The temporary accommodation project for the school referred to by the Deputy has been devolved to the patron body, Educate Together, for delivery. The patron body has met with the local authority and is arranging for a planning application to be submitted for the consolidation of the school on a single site which will provide sufficient accommodation pending delivery of the school's permanent accommodation. 

My Department will continue to work closely with the patron body and with the local authority to ensure a positive outcome.

The data requested by the Deputy are not held by my Department. The matter of enrolment in individual schools is the responsibility of the managerial authority of the school.
