Adjournment Matters. - School Closures.
Central to any proposal for the continuation of the school is the need for extensive capital investment in the infrastructure of the building. The reality is that enrolment trends have not changed in recent years and the indications are that, on current trends, an optimistic projection of future enrolment would be in the region of 125. This projection is based on a pattern of enrolment where in excess of 60% of the total first-year intake comes from outside the catchment area. The school currently attracts less than a quarter of the potential from schools in its catchment area.
