The build is anticipated to take approximately 22 months once work gets underway.
Construction on a long-awaited school building project at the former Magee Barracks site is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2026.
The Department of Education has authorised the Design Team to issue a Letter of Intent to the contractor - a key step that clears the way for the project to move to the construction phase.
The build is anticipated to take approximately 22 months once work gets underway.
Principal of Curragh Community College, Nessa Doyle, has welcomed the news.
The school has been plagued with problems, including persistent leaks, the spread of black mould, and a lack of basic resources - forcing some classes to close in December.
Separately, an emergency works grant has also been approved to carry out repairs to the school’s existing buildings.
The funding will allow all classrooms to return to full operation.
