The school referred to by the deputy has been approved funding under the Department's Additional School's Accommodation (ASA) Scheme.

Through close collaboration between the Department, the school and consultants engaged by the school to deliver this project, it has become clear that further works will be required and an overall master plan for these works is currently being worked through by Department officials. The school is being kept updated of all developments in this respect.

Interim measures are being put in place by the Department to address the most urgent issues of concern in the school ahead of the delivery of the permanent works. These measures are being implemented currently and the Department has been in regular contact with the school and its consultants to provide appropriate interim accommodation as expeditiously as possible.
