I am pleased to advise the Deputy that the school referred to was granted approval for the provision of 4 Special Education Tuition rooms under the Additional School Accommodation Scheme, the accommodation is being delivered from the Department's Modular Accommodation Framework.

The project is devolved to the School Authority for delivery. Task Order 1 has been issued which is an instruction to the nominated manufacturer to manufacture the unit. Department officials have recently been advised that the school's Design Team is currently preparing detailed designs, costings and programme for delivery which is to be submitted to the Department for consideration before progressing to the next stage which is approval to issue Task Order 2 (construction on-site).
