Athenry chosen to pilot new online secondary schools admission system

Athenry has been chosen as one of five locations nationwide to trial a new online system for post-primary school admissions.

It allows parents and guardians to apply for first-year places, including special class placements.

Once a student has accepted a place in a school, other schools that have offered the student a place will be notified.

Clarin College, Coláiste an Eachréidh, and Presentation College in Athenry are all covered by the pilot which runs until October 22nd.
