Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Education (Admission to Schools) Bill 2020: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Áine Lynch:

Yes, it is our view. Based on everything I have said, it is the reason if there is a particular admissions criteria. At the end of the day there are always going to be children and parents who, in an over-subscribed school, will not be happy with the result. We have to make that unhappiness "fair", for want of a better word, so that everybody going into that process has an equal chance of being unhappy and an equal chance of being happy in terms of the selection.
