I would like to inform the Deputy that the school in question has been approved funding under my Departments Emergency Works Scheme for Universal Access Works.

The scope of works shall be:

i. Install a lift in the main building to provide access to the first floor

ii. Provide an accessible WC in the school.

iii. Provide a platform lift to give access to the canteen.

iv. Provide handrails at stepped entrance to German room.

v. Raise the ground externally at existing entrances to remove step.

vi. Provide a designated parking space and set down space with level paths to entrance.

As this is a devolved project it is the responsibility of the school authority to progress the works.
