Claregalway school site will cater for 1000 students in five years

A SITE has been purchased for the expansion of Claregalway’s secondary school which will ensure that the school campus will be able to cater for a projected enrolment of 1,000 pupils in five years’ time.
The site of about 14 acres has been purchased on lands beside the existing Coláiste Bhaile Chláir in Claregalway Corporate Park.
Principal Alan Mongey has confirmed that the first extension to the school, which was planned before this latest purchase, will go ahead early next year and planning permission has already been applied for.
