Education Minister Peter Weir confirmed his Department is currently seeking valuations on a prospective site for the expansion of the school.
Sinn Féin MLA Karen Mullan has hit out at the lack of urgency over the project.
"School and sectoral leaders, as well as the wider community, are clear that the Department has been well aware of the need for additional land and accommodation at the school for many years," she said.

"Gaelscoil na Daróige were hopeful that they would have this expansion in place for the intake of pupils in September 2020.
"Instead, at this late stage, the Department of Education are still only at the stage of seeking valuations.
"This is simply unacceptable, given that the school has been operating in temporary portacabin accommodation for 15 years while pupil numbers continue to grow.
"The Minister must approach this with a sense of urgency and provide these children and their teachers with the facilities they need and deserve."
