In June 2019 the school in question was approved grant funding for three General Classrooms, two Standard WCs and WC for assisted users, four SET rooms and a Science Lab & Prep area under the Additional Accommodation scheme for 2019. The delivery of this project is devolved to the school authority.

The school originally submitted a Stage 1 (preliminary design) Report to my Department for review in April 2020, but a number of issues were identified with the report, and Department officials requested a revised design. The school submitted this in December 2020, and after review by Department officials the project was approved to progress to the planning stage in April.
