The major building project for the school referred to by the Deputy will be delivered under the Departments ADAPT Programme.
The ADAPT Programme uses a professional external Project Manager to co-ordinate and drive the Design Team to achieve the best possible timeframe for the project through the stages of Architectural Planning to Tender and Construction.
The project is at the initial stage of Architectural Planning, Stage 1 – Preliminary Design, where the Design Team will assess the site and prepare their initial sketch schemes.
A preferred design option based on the Schedule of Accommodation to be provided, including the scope and extent of works to be carried out, will be established during this early stage.
On receipt of the Stage 1 report, the Stage 1 Stakeholders meeting will be arranged, between the School Authorities, Design Team, Project Manager and the Department. Any proposed changes to the brief will be reviewed at the Stage 1 Stakeholders meeting. Following that meeting, my Department will advise all Stakeholders regarding the further progression of the project.
