Parents seek second-level Educate Together school

THE success of a Educate Together multi-denominational primary school has led to huge demand for a second-level school under the same umbrella.

Since last November a group of Waterford city parents has been meeting every week, following a first public meeting on the idea of founding the school.

The committee has pre-enrolled more than 220 children to begin at the school between 2009 and 2017 but the project’s future depends on the approval of Educate Together’s application to become a patron for second-level schools.
