330 Mr. Higgins (Mayo) asked the Minister for Education and Science the proposals, if any, he has to close Facefield primary school, Facefield, Claremorris, County Mayo. [11617/99]
Facefield national school has an enrolment of 31 pupils, down from 39 in the last school year. It has a teaching staff of a principal and one assistant and the services of a remedial teacher on a shared basis with a number of other schools in the area.
There are no plans in my Department to close the school.
