Letters to the Editor: Difficulty securing school spot
One school in Midleton states that last year it had six applications for two available ASD spaces. A reader asks: Where did the children go in the meantime? Picture: Larry Cummins
Regarding Mick Clifford’s ‘Why isn’t the minister making schools open new special classes?’ (December 14): I am facing the same problem for my son, in Midleton.
He is the youngest of three children, but his sisters go to St Mary’s High School, which is a girls-only school. As a result, in the priority rankings for the schools he would be eligible for, he is next to last; only those from outside the catchment area are lower.
