The school to which the Deputy refers to was approved to enter the departments pipeline of school building projects under the Additional Schools Accommodation (ASA) Scheme to provide a 4 Classroom SEN base and 2 SET classrooms.

The project has been devolved for delivery to the school authority.

The Tender Report/Stage 3 report for the project was recently received by my department and is currently being reviewed from both a technical and cost perspective in accordance with the requirements of the Public Spending Code.

All projects, including this one, will undergo the necessary due diligence outlined in the public Infrastructure Guidelines. Managing timing, scope, and cost is crucial to staying within budgetary limits for the overall programme.

Upon completion of this review process my Department officials will communicate with the school authority regarding the next steps to advance this significant project.
