In order to plan for school provision and analyse the relevant demographic data, my department divides the country into 314 school planning areas and uses a geographical information system, using data from a range of sources, including CSO census data, child benefit and school enrolment data, to identify where the pressure for school places across the country will arise and where additional school accommodation is needed at primary and post-primary level.

The constituency of Dublin West covers several school planning areas including:

• BlanchardstownVge_D15
• Blanchardstown_West_D15
• Carpenterstown_D15
• Castleknock_D15
• Mulhuddart_Tyrrelstown_D15
• Scribblestown_FinglasWest
• Cabra_Phibsboro_D7 (partial)
