The school referred to by the deputy received approval for a building project under the Department's Additional School Accommodation (ASA) Scheme. The school recently submitted the Form of Acceptance for this project. Progression of this project through Stage 1 of the architectural planning process currently lies with the school authority.

Whilst this project has been devolved to the school authority for delivery, the Department is engaged directly with the school to provide whatever practical assistance and advice is necessary to implement this important project for the wider school community.
