The school to which the Deputy refers opened in 2019 in interim accommodation in a premises on Kill Lane, Deansgrange, County Dublin. As the accommodation at the current location is at full capacity the school will need to move to alternative interim accommodation for September 2021 and work is ongoing in that regard.
In relation to the permanent school site, a number of site options have been identified which are now being comprehensively assessed. Once a preferred site option has been identified, negotiations with the landowner in respect of the proposed acquisition of this site will commence.
