Update: North Kildare Gaelcholaiste, 1st July 2015

To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the progress to date in the
determination of response to the submissions made by the various school
authorities promoting the need for a Gaelcholaiste in North Kildare serving the
areas of Maynooth, Leixlip, Celbridge, Kilcock and the wider area; when it is
expected the proposal will be advanced further; and if she will make a
statement on the matter.
– Bernard J. Durkan.

My Department is currently examining the extent and location of additional
post-primary places that will be needed on a nationwide basis from 2017
onwards. This will include an examination of the north Kildare area. A
submission received from a Patron body in relation to all-Irish provision in
north Kildare will be taken into consideration as part of this examination.
