This school to which the Deputy refers, has been approved funding under my Department’s Additional School Accommodation (ASA) scheme for the provision of 6 general classrooms, 1 tech graph room, 1 woodwork room, 2 science rooms and shared prep area, 1 home economics room, and a 2 classroom SEN base.

The Department’s professional and technical team has issued comments to the schools design team for review and response before the project can progress.

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.
