Minister for Education and Skills

I am aware that the Patron of the school in question set up a Task Force to consider options for the future of the school. I understand that the Task Force Report was adopted by the Patron at its recent meeting and that work on the recommendations to increase enrolments will now commence with the school community. I understand also that the report has been presented to all the stakeholder groups.
