Waterford and Wexford Education and Training Board (WWETB) members were delighted to be informed by the Chief Executive Kevin Lewis at their meeting this week that the Design Team has been appointed for the project to deliver a 1,000-pupil in Wexford Town.

The Design Team will work together to deliver a replacement school for Selskar College and a new 8 classroom school for the Educate Together National School with significant potential for future expansion of both schools.

The Design Team appointed consists of Architect and Design Team Leader Coady Architects; O’Connor Sutton Cronin & Associates Ltd (Civil/Structural Engineers); BDP (Mechanical & Electrical Engineers); MacMinn O’Reilly Mahon (Quantity Surveyor); Atkin (PSDP).

WWETB announced in September 2020 that The Department of Education and Skills had informed the Chief Executive that a 16-acre site (subject to planning permission) at a location between the Whitford Hotel and the Clonard Road had been identified and acquired. WWETB will manage and deliver the project for both schools.
