The Deputy will be aware that a building project for the school in question is included in my Department's school building programme.
My Department has reached Agreement in Principle with a landowner in respect of the acquisition of a site for this school. Significant progress has been made recently and the Department expects the acquisition to proceed to Legal Conveyancing stage in the near future. The acquisition will be subject to contract. The site is some 16.88 acres and is proposed to facilitate the permanent accommodation needs of the school in question as well as two other schools as a campus type arrangement
In tandem with this, the accommodation brief for the proposed project is also being developed.
