Coliste na Carraige has received permission to proceed to tender with its extension plans.
The Carrick secondary school was given the go-ahead to construct a four-room extension under the Department of Education’s Additional School Accommodation Scheme.
The extension will consist of a multi-media room, a music room, a metalwork room and a textiles room.
Welcoming the announcement, Minister, Charlie McConalogue, paid tribute to the school’s principal, staff and board of management for their efforts in getting the project to the tender stage.
