Today the Minister for Education & Science announced that she has approved applications for 22 new schools, of which Maynooth Educate Together is one. 18 of these are new primary schools and 4 special schools including one for children with autism. Educate Together had a record 12 new schools approved for September 2008.
Full details of the Minister's announcement are on the Department's website here.
With this announcement and the hoped-for vote in favour of the Material Contravention next week, the work is now just beginning for Maynooth Educate Together. We will shortly be advertising for a Principal teacher and commencing the offering of places in the school. We will also be organising an information and social event for parents of enrolled children in the near future. Information on this will be sent out closer to the time.
If you feel you can help in any way be sure to contact us. There will be plenty to do to open our children's new school this September.
