BAM Ireland is to design and build four new national schools in Cork and Dublin.
The construction company has been awarded the Design & Build contract by the Department of Education for four schools, totalling 80 new classrooms.
The Irish Examiner reports the new Douglas Rochestown Educate Together National School, which is being developed at Carrs Hill, and will be a 24-classroom multi-storey building including a three-classroom unit for children with special educational needs.
A new access road off the Carrigaline Road will also be provided, with a set-down area and 47 car parking spaces.
Work has now commenced at the school and three sites in Dublin.
