104. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills if a school (details supplied) can reactivate an unsuccessful application for additional accommodation rather than making a new application; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29720/18]

I can confirm to the Deputy that the school in question recently wrote to my Department advising that it expects enrolments to increase in the coming academic year 2018/2019.

My Department contacted the school and advised the principal that should enrolment increase to a level that would warrant the appointment of an additional teacher, it is then open to the school to re-activate its application for additional accommodation, should the school's existing accommodation not be capable of accommodating the additional teacher.
