The delivery of a new building for the school to which the Deputy refers, has been devolved to Cork Education and Training Board. This new school building will cater for a long-term projected enrolment of 1,000 pupils and includes a 4-Class SEN Base.
Following the Stage 1 meeting with the Department in September 2021, the project was sanctioned to proceed to Stage 2a. Currently the design team is progressing the Stage 2a in line with the approved Stage 1 and the subsequent comments and recommendations.
The Stage 2A (detailed design) process must be completed before a planning application for the project can be lodged.
The timeframe for the construction of the project will not be known until the design stages have been completed and planning permission has been secured.
