The Deputy will be aware that my Department gave grant approval for the school to build a classroom and an Assisted-User WC under the Additional Schools' Accommodation Scheme 2016. Delivery of this project has been devolved to the school authority.

The current position with respect to this project is that the school has been required to retender same as there were a number of issues with the previous tendering process. My Department is awaiting a revised tender report in that context.

I can confirm that the school referred to by the Deputy has submitted an application to my Department, for capital funding, under the Additional School Accommodation scheme.

The application is currently under consideration and a decision will be conveyed directly to the school authority as soon as the assessment process is completed.
