Please set up another class. I don't want to have separate schools for my boys. Plus Holy Family is a great school!!

it will be an absolute disgrace if the department of education do not approve this 7th junior infant class with the shortage of schools in swords

As a Montessori teacher in the area a lot of children that are well able and ready to go to school in September are coming back next year as they do not have a place in this school. It's a disgrace your holding children back that are thriving to learn more.

families that are struggling already now have extra playschool fees or extra travel cost and other expenses trying to get to a school outside of their catchment area

It is a crying Shame that places can not be provided for our country's Children in their Local Area, and not have to ship them out to schools outside their own catchment area....shame, shame, shame, The school is in Need od this 7th classroom, it is a vital community service....so wake up, and provide the resources needed to Educate the Children.

This is sad to think that siblings can't go to the school

Not feasible to send siblings to two different schools and two different parishes.

why refuse children to attend a chosen school for education?

This is the school I went to when I was a kid, and back then classroom sizes were huge! Yet we were all fine. That school has held so many more children than it does now and will definitely be able to in future.

Disgraceful that the department have refused this 7th classroom, with over 100 children on the waiting list, this will have a knock on effect for the next 5 years.
