Education Minister Anne Craine says her department's budget will have to be 'trimmed' in the wake of this week's 'VAT bombshell'.
But she is insisting the construction of the new secondary school at Bemahague, Onchan won't be affected.
The government's budget is due to be slashed by up to £90 million next year and £140 million thereafter, but Mrs Craine says the new school remains firmly on track:
SPC: 'Manxman is trying to cover a lot of bases'
Treasury says now is not time to 'attribute blame'
CC: 'Police will continue to adapt and respond to challenges'
