Primary schools are facing an unprecedented level of demand next year with double the number of school openings required, according to Educate Together.

The group are calling on the Minister for Education and Skills to urgently address the need for new schools in 43 areas nationwide.

Speaking from the organisation's AGM, Chief Executive Paul Rowe said the department must open twice as many schools compared to previous years.
