The school building project referred to by the Deputy is being delivered under my Department's Design & Build Programme and planning permission for the project has been received.

My Department is currently considering the timeline for the progression to tender of a number of Design & Build projects, including the permanent accommodation for the school referred to and will advise the school's patron body further as soon as possible.

Pending delivery of the permanent building project, my Department will continue to address the interim accommodation needs of the school in conjunction with Dublin & Dún Laoghaire ETB.
