Fingal County Council has granted planning permission for two new VEC schools in the Ongar/Phibblestown area. Pobalscoil Setanta, a second-level school and Scoil Ghráinne, a primary school have received full planning permission.

Local councillor Michael O’ Donovan, who is also Chairperson of the Board of Management of the new Community College, Pobalscoil Setanta ,welcomed the decision. “This campus when completed will serve more than 1,600 students in the areas of Ongar, Castaheany and Littlepace, and ensure that our young people receive the best educational opportunities locally. This is a landmark project for Dublin 15 and it will add significant benefits to the locality, not only in terms of educational facilities, but also in terms of wider community and sporting facilities”
