Teachers' Conferences: Mixed response to school admissions proposal

Plans by Education Minister Jan O’Sullivan to introduce limits on the number of children of past pupils that can be admitted to schools drew a mixed response.
The minister has said the 10% limit on the offspring of past pupils being admitted has not been finalised amid signs that some Fine Gael TDs are unhappy with the move after Ms O’Sullivan’s predecessor Ruairi Quinn favoured a 25% ceiling.
