The main project is currently at Stage 2a of the architectural planning design process (detailed design). The Department awaits submission of the Stage 2a report.
An enabling works project comprising of roof refurbishment works was approved by the Department in November 2025. These works are currently on-going. The length of time a project takes to deliver depends on several factors, including scale and complexity. The Department will continue to engage with the school authority regarding progress of the works.
