School managers disappointed after meeting minister
The Minister for Education has told school managers that there will be no changes to the controversial cutbacks in education announced in last months budget.
Representatives of school boards of management met Batt O'Keeffe this afternoon to express their concerns about plans to increase class sizes and cut funding for substitute teachers.
They say they were disappointed by the meeting and they were given no hope that the Government is willing to compromise on the issue.
They have now vowed to continue to protest against the cutbacks and claimed the entire education system is in jeopardy.
