The school referred to by the Deputy was allocated a grant in May 2017 for a mechanical upgrade under my Department’s Summer Works Scheme. In September 2017 the school authority sought approval to use the allocated funding to carry out roof repairs instead and approval in principle was granted subject to details of the proposed works and costings being submitted.

The requested information was received on 8 February 2018 and is currently being assessed. My Department will be in contact with the school authority as quickly as possible.
