Hi
We as a family are planning to move to Celbridge in the coming months and we were looking for primary school admissions. Unfortunately it seems they dont have any place left.

I would like to know is there any rule to give compulsory admission for a particular school catchment area especially in the case of school transfers.
Please feel free to comment as any information is welcomed.

Nothing like that, but the schools in the area should offer a place in their own catchment. Is there any rules guiding these....

Each school sets its own enrollment criteria so you need to contact each school.
