The school to which the Deputy refers to was approved to enter my Departments pipeline of school building projects under the Additional Schools Accommodation (ASA) Scheme to provide two Special Educational Needs (SEN) classrooms and three Special Education Tuition (SET) rooms.
The project was devolved to the school authority for delivery.
The Stage 1 (preliminary design ) report 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 program.
Once the review of the Stage 1 submission is completed, the outcome will be communicated to the school authority in due course.
