Prefabs are to be installed at St Brogan's School in Bandon, Cork, to provide for increased demand.
Extension plans have been approved, however in the meantime prefabs will be used.
Fianna Fail TD Margaret Murphy O’Mahony has said that clarity must be given on when and how many prefabs will be installed and if they will be in use for September 2018.
She said: "September 2018 is just six months ago. There is a considerable level of interest among local parents in sending their children to the school due to its fine reputation, and positive learning environment. St. Brogan’s is one of four secondary schools serving the town and surrounding hinterland.
"The Department of Education can be quite in turning words into action so clarity and answers from the Department is needed.
"I trust that the Minister will stick to his word and deliver on his promises. It’s crucially important as so many students will be disappointed not to get a place in the school."
