Question:36. Deputy Jonathan O'Brien asked the Minister for Education and Skills if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the board of management of a school (details supplied), with the support of parents and staff, has decided to enrol a junior infants class for September 2014 in order to secure the long-term future of the school in a situation of falling numbers of pupils and the school being only allowed to take students at second class; if he is aware that this enrolment decision did not receive the permission of the trustees or the patron; if he will accept the right of parents to choose what school their child can attend; if he will provide the necessary support for the school to implement the new policy; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
