There are seven post-primary schools (six secondary and one vocational) in Dundalk Post-primary Centre. These schools are:
Coláiste Rí CBS, (Co-Ed);
St. Mary's College, (Co-Ed);
De La Salle Secondary School, (Boys);
St. Vincent's Secondary School, (Girls);
St. Louis Secondary School, (Girls);
Dundalk Grammar School, (Co-Ed)
— Protestant;
Vocational School, (Co-Ed).
The current combined enrolment in the schools is 4,845 pupils.
On the attached statement which I propose to circulate in the Official Report, are set out up-to-date statistical details on enrolments in the primary and post-primary schools in the Dundalk area.
My Department accepts that in the short term the demand for places in some of the post-primary schools in Dundalk may exceed the number of places available. In the circumstances, any application for the provision of extra temporary accommodation at these schools will be given careful and sympathetic consideration.
