Minister McEntee Launches Largest Ever Survey of Primary School and Pre-School Parents

Minister urges all primary school and pre-school parents to have their say on the future of school provision

Minister for Education and Youth, Helen McEntee TD, has announced a major step in expanding parental choice in education, with the launch of an online, school-specific survey of parents, guardians and primary school communities. The survey – the largest of its kind ever undertaken in Ireland – will assess parental demand for different types of primary school provision including patronage, co-education and Irish-medium provision.

Parents and guardians of children who are either in, or yet to start, primary school – as well as primary school staff and members of primary school Boards of Management – will be asked to take part.
