The permanent school building project for the school referred to by the Deputy has been assigned to my Department’s Design & Build delivery programme. This campus project will deliver a 1,000 pupil post-primary school for the school referred to by the Deputy and a 16 classroom primary Gaelscoil on the permanent site at Fortunestown Lane, Citywest, Saggart, Co. Dublin

The final grant of planning permission for the project was received in March 2021. My Department’s Project Manager together with their Design Team are engaged in the preparation of tender documentation for the project. It is intended that the project will be included in the next bundle of projects to proceed to tender later this year.

Pending delivery of the permanent building project, my Department will continue to address the interim accommodation needs of the school in conjunction with the school’s patron body.
