A second junior infants class will now be created
The Department of Education has approved the appointment of a new junior infants teacher for Scoil Mhuire Primary School in Ballymore Eustace.
Last month we reported that up to 16 parents were left in limbo, as their children were refused a place in the school.
However, this afternoon the school has received confirmation from the Department that another teacher can be appointed for the 2024/25 academic year, meaning places can now be offered to all applicants, with the creation of a second junior infants class.
Local Fine Gael Cllr. Evie Sammon says the news will come as a great relief to parents in Ballymore Eustace.
