I am pleased to advise the Deputy in relation to the school referred to, that my Department has received a Stage 1 report from the school.

This report has been reviewed by officials in my Department and approval to progress the project to Stage 2A was conveyed to the school authority in October 2023.

This project is devolved to the school authority for delivery. My Department will assist the school authority in progressing this project to completion.
