Answer
I approved Development Proposal 616 on 14 December 2020. The proposal was to increase the admissions number at Drumrane Primary from 17 to 20 with a phased increase in enrolment from 116 to 140.
No additional classrooms were required as the school currently has five classrooms which is the correct size for a maximum enrolment of 140.
The provision of a multi-purpose room and toilets is the responsibility of the Education Authority (EA) and would be subject to the EA completing a feasibility report to identify the need and a business case setting out the preferred option.
