The proposal removes the right to have our children educated in a single sex Catholic-maintained school in North Belfast . West Belfast offers both single sex and co-ed secondary schools. Why are we being denied this right in North Belfast? We should have the right to choose the type of school we want to educate our children in.

This is a wonderful school and is consistently meeting high educational standards. I chose to send my daughter here because it is a single sex school.

Two thriving schools in terms of examination results and enrolment each year. Grades for St. Patricks going up year after year and the same for Little Flower. Two respected schools of North Belfast. Keep it the way it is. The people of North Belfast are entitled to male/female same sex education by choice!

Little flower provides an excellent level of education and support to young girls away from the pressure and influences of today's society. Let's keep and maintain it the way it is. Change isn't always for the best!

i have fond memories of my days in little flower one of the first pupils when its doors opened i think its a disgrace to merge the two schools and to deny the rights of the community in north belfast the school is a credit to the staff and principal as the grades prove this please keep little flower an all girls school

I spent the best years of my life at Little Flower and that is because I spent it with other like minded girls - this school needs to remain an all girl school, it instills a strong sense of togetherness and the importance of female strength and solidarity.

I disagree with this largely as i have a daughter within the school currently who is thriving! Merging the school with the opposite sex is a total disaster and a complete distraction!

An absolute disgrace, needs to stay an all girls school, part of the reason I sent my daughter there!
