· The legislation requires us to respond to your request for information as soon as possible after it is received, and not later than 20 working days after the date of receipt.

Notice is hereby given that under Article 79 of the Education Reform (NI) Order 1989 that a proposal has been submitted to the Western Education and Library Board (WELB) by the Board of Governors of Drumragh Integrated College. The proposal is to the effect that: Drumragh Integrated College proposes to increase the capacity number of the College from 580 to 750 over a period of 5 years. This would permit the College to increase sixth form provision from 100 pupils to 150 pupils and increase the admissions number from 96 pupils to 120 pupils with effect from 1 September 2013 or as soon as possible thereafter. In pursuance of Article 79 (1) (a) and 79 (2) of the Education Reform (NI) Order 1989 and Article 14 of the Education and Libraries (NI) Order 1986, as amended by Article 24 of the Education and Libraries (NI) Order 2003, this proposal has been submitted by the WELB to the Department of Education for approval.

The date
Dear Sirs,
I am writing to express my support for Development Proposal number 226, where it is proposed
to increase the enrolment of Drumragh Integrated College. My reasons for supporting the proposal
include ------------------.
Yours faithfully,
Your signature
Your name
The following are key points from the development proposal:
(i) The College is currently over-subscribed.
(ii) The current Long Term Enrolment numbers are too low to cater for future trends.
(iii) There is insufficient provision for integrated education in the Omagh area.
(iv) There is a significant demand from parents, for the quality and type of education
provided by the College.
(v) There is substantial parental frustration at a lack of places in the College.
(vi) There is both a community-based and province-wide need and desire for greater integration.
The intentions of this development proposal are to:
1. Increase the College’s admissions limit (the number allowed in
each year group 8-12) from 96 to 120.
2. Increase the Sixth Form from 100 to 150 approximately.
3. Increase the Long Term Enrolment number from 580 to 750 over a period of
5 years, expanding incoming year 8 groups by 24 year by year,
and increasing the Sixth Form in response to demand.
4. Obtain mobile classroom accommodation proportionate to increases in student enrolment.
Please consider supporting this recommendation and asking others to do the same; our voice
needs to be heard.
