I propose to take Questions Nos. 196 and 197 together.

The Department received correspondence regarding this school in November 2017. This outlined a number of alleged concerns regarding various issues within the school.

The inspector has conducted a number of inspections in this school during 2018. The Department has considered the report on these inspections. 

It is intended to undertake further action in the near future, which may include a review of the financial accounts pertaining to the school.
