Staff at Cork school 'teaching in cupboards', TD tells Education Minister

The Dáil heard there is rising demand for places at the Fermoy Educate Together school which was established under the patronage divestment process

Minister for Education Norma Foley said Fermoy Educate Together National School would remain a four-classroom school until additional accommodation became available.

Something must be done to relieve the pressure on a Cork school where staff are "teaching in cupboards", a Cork TD has said.

David Stanton raised the issue of Fermoy Educate Together with Minister for Education Norma Foley in the Dáil saying there is no space for students and teachers in the existing building.
