    Total enrolment in both primary and post-primary schools is expected to grow by almost 70,000 between now and 2018 - over 45,000 at primary level and 25,000 at post primary - and will continue to grow up to at least 2024 at post-primary level.

    The Minister said that his priority is now to focus on major school projects and smaller projects devolved to schools to meet the demographic demands.

    "The primary aim will be to ensure that every child will have access to a school place," he said.


    Smacks very much of the old "access to a learning support teacher" doesn't seem to matter how many children on the books per teacher, once everyone has a "place" even if there are 35 in the class.

    Well if it's anything like the "access" many children with SEN have to an SNA, then there'll be one teacher split between different classrooms, and expected to be available to all of them at one time!
