I can confirm to the Deputy, that my Department recently received an application for capital funding, under the Additional School Accommodation (ASA) scheme, from the school in question. 

The purpose of the Additional Schools Accommodation (ASA) scheme is to ensure that essential mainstream and special education classroom accommodation is available to cater for pupils enrolled each year and where the need cannot be met by the school’s existing accommodation.

The application is currently under review and on completion of the assessment process the school authority will be contacted directly with a decision.
