Local Fine Gael TD and Minister for Transport, Tourism & Sport Leo Varadkar has welcomed the decision of Fingal County Council to grant planning permission for a classroom extension and new sports hall for Castleknock Community College and the total redevelopment of Scoil Bhride Boys’ and Girls’ schools in Blanchardstown.
“I am very pleased that Fingal County Council has granted planning permission for both of these important developments. Now that planning permission has been secured, the next step is to tender for construction. Both schools have expanded considerably in recent years and need these new facilities. I will be in contact with the Minister for Education, Ruairi Quinn, during the week about these projects and to highlight the importance of advancing them to the next stage. Although money is tight, there is still more than €300 million allocated for new school buildings every year.”
