Parents queue for secondary school places

MORE than 50 parents  camped out for up to two days  at the weekend to get a place in a desirable secondary school for their daughters.

The parents had been stationed in the car park of Presentation Secondary School in Tralee, Co Kerry, since Thursday to keep their place in the queue for enrollment, which began on Saturday morning at 10am.


School´s principal Sheila Pontillo insists that queuing is unnecessary, but made the school hall available to parents overnight. The school offers 130 places each year and about 50 of these are reserved for girls at its feeder school, Presentation Primary.
