I wish to advise the Deputy that a Special Education Needs Base will be provided in the new school building to be constructed for the school in question. A site is required for this purpose and discussions are ongoing with a landowner with a view to acquiring a site.  

I also wish to advise the Deputy that provision is being made for a special class in the school's interim accommodation for the academic year 2021/2022, subject to planning permission.
