(a) No.
(b) The proposed eight-classroom block project has been set aside for consideration in future budget processes and so has not been implemented.
(c) Currently the eight-classroom block is not required to accommodate Year 7 students. The Department's projections indicate that 570 students are expected to be enrolled at Collie Senior High School in 2015. As the school can accommodate up to 750 students, the school has capacity to meet its needs in 2015.
