Monasterevin secondary school to be discussed in the Dáil this evening

Fianna Fáil TD Sean Fleming will raise the topic of the need for the completion of two projects in Monasterevin to be given priority by the Department of Education's new six year plan that is set to be announced in the coming weeks.

St. Paul’s Secondary School has been promised a new school for a number of years and this has been on the building programme up to now. It is essential that this project be allowed go to construction stage in 2016.

Deputy Fleming says another major priority is the amalgamation of the two National Schools. This currently is not on the Governments plan, and Deputy Fleming is calling for the amalgamation to be included in the Departments construction plan.
