A public demonstration for “Equality in Education” was held at the Square in Dundalk on Saturday before moving to outside Fianna Fail TD Erin McGreehan’s office.

The demonstration was organised by All Abilities Action Alliance Louth (4AL) in collaboration with People Before Profit.

Affected parents, children and supporters attended the demo with signs reading “Equal rights now”, “Secondary School Places For All”, “I Want to go to school” and “Appropriate School Place is my right”. The demo concluded with the chant “let them in, let them in!”

Eimear McNally, an affected parent and 4AL member, joined us on The Agenda this morning to tell us more about their campaign and about how bad the situation is for herself and other parents in Louth. 

We also spoke to Louth dad Liam Bradley, who recently won a high court battle to obtain a school place for his daughter.
