My Department recently decided in order to meet future capacity needs across the area, that the school to which the Deputy refers should be replaced and expanded with a new 1,000 pupil school building. A new site will be required for the school and the Department will be liaising with KWETB with a view to the process for identifying a suitable site . At this early stage in the process, it is not possible for me to provide a timeframe.  I can assure the Deputy that my Department will make every effort to progress the matter.
