'We are left with no choice but to launch a campaign and call out this irresponsible, uninformed, and reckless decision.'
The decision by the former Education Minister to merge three schools in Downpatrick has been branded a "disgrace" by angry parents at one of the schools.
It also claims that the new provisions would exclude pupils from rural areas and would lead to the new school being over-subscribed, causing problems for children in local primary schools. "Our opposition as a community was ignored in 2018 and we are left with no choice but to launch a campaign and call out this irresponsible, uninformed, and reckless decision made by the caretaker Education Minister.”
"This is simply unacceptable, and we implore Mark Browne as the Permanent Secretary of the Department of Education to step in and halt this fanciful plan.”
