Feel free to leave your comments on the situation of "Star of the Sea" Primary School, Passage West, how the politicians have helped (or failed) us, how you expect Primary School education to be in 2008, etc. Please leave at least your first name but fill out only the details that you feel comfortable to share.
Comment: The circumstances, under which children are being given their primary education in schools all over the country, is a disgrace. Thanks God, their teachers are excellent but what is urgently needed is an allocation of extra budget to the Department of Education and a change of policy which makes the building of new schools a priority in the entire Republic. It seems, the Government doesn't care. Full of talk about a knowledge economy but how are our children to compete with low-wages economies?

Comment: As a parent what I have found most annoying when asking Ministers and Public representatives for a new school in Passage is how they say that they will "fully support" me in my efforts to get a new school for my children. If I have a broken tap at home and I call a plumber I don't expect him to stand in my kitchen and "fully support" all my efforts to get my tap fixed. I don't want support, what I do want is a new school.
