We are actively seeking a resolution to this problem. It is not a case of bad planning. Many apartments were built in the area in which, unusually, families of school-going children live. Normally, one would have anticipated that younger couples or individuals would live in them. For various reasons, such as immigration, these apartments were populated by whole families with children who need school places.
