Following the recent announcement by the Trustees of the phased closure of the school referred to by the Deputy, the Department will incorporate the existing catchment area of that school into the Gort Community School catchment area to allow the girls residing in the Kinvara catchment area have the same entitlement as boys to attend Gort Community School. The Department has no plans to review the catchment areas in north Clare.
