369. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills if her attention has been drawn to the issues presenting at a school (details supplied) as a consequence of two schools sharing the same building; her views on whether this is negatively impacting the education of the young people attending the school not permanently resident in the building; the action that her Department is taking to ensure the delivery of a new school building for the school at the earliest opportunity; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The school referred to by the deputy has been approved a modular framework project under the Department's Additional School Accommodation (ASA) Scheme. The Department is aware that the design team is currently finalising construction of the modular accommodation and it is due on site shortly.

The school authority has provided an update to the Department regarding works to the existing school; I am pleased to inform that this work is due to commence imminently, during the school midterm break.
