The school to which the Deputy refers to was approved funding under my Department's Additional Accommodation Scheme. The project is devolved for delivery to the school authority and will provide a 2 Classroom Special Education Needs (SEN) base, 6 x Mainstream Classrooms with en-suite and assisted user WC.

I can confirm that my Department has received a Stage 1 design report from the school authority. This report is currently being reviewed by technical officials in my Department. A decision will be conveyed to the school authority as soon as this review has been completed.
