I wish to advise the Deputy that permanent school buildings for the first and second named schools referred to in the details supplied were constructed in 2015 and 2014 respectively.

The current status of the major building project for the third named school referred to in the details supplied is that a major building project is at an advanced stage of the architectural planning process - stage 2b (Detailed Design).

The Stage 2(b) report was submitted to my Department in late September 2018 and following an initial review, the report was deemed incomplete. My Department has returned the report to the Design Team for revision.

Upon receipt and review of the revised Stage 2(b) report and assuming that the report is satisfactory, my Department will advise the Board of Management of the timeline for the progression of this project to the tender and construction stage.
