The school referred to by the Deputy was approved to enter the Department’s pipeline of school buildings under the Additional School Accommodation scheme to provide a 2 classroom SEN base and 1 mainstream classroom. The project is devolved to the School Authority for delivery.
I can confirm that my Department awaits a Stage 1 report for review. Once the Stage 1 submission is received it will be reviewed from both a technical and cost perspective in accordance with the requirements of the Public Infrastructure Guidelines. 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 program.
It is now within the remit of the school authority to progress this very important project.
