School Accommodation

Norma Foley (FF), Kerry

Could I have the floor? Pobalscoil na Tríonóide in Youghal, Coláiste Muire and Carrignafoy Community College in Cobh and Dromahane National School in Mallow are part of the programme. I did not mention the Patrician Academy in Mallow. Scoil An Athar Tadhg in Carrignavar and Ringaskiddy Lower Harbour National School are part of the programme. I am saying there is considerable work and all of the schools that have been referenced have made considerable accommodation and additionality with regard to places. The Deputy referred to a specific number. It may well be the case going forward and I accept that there may be a requirement for an additional school in the area. That is kept under constant review by the Department. It is very much to the fore of my mind. Specifically on places, the Department is doing analysis of whether there are issues with school of choice or availability of places in other schools in the east Cork area the Deputy referred to.
