Clare Secondary Principal Believes Co-Ed Schools Improve Social Outcomes

It follows the findings of a new ESRI survey of over 2,300 teenagers nationwide which found that just 4% of students in Co-Ed schools said they would prefer to attend an all-boys or all-girls school.

Principal of St.Flannans College in Ennis, Fr.Ignatius McCormack believes attending a mixed school is much better for social development.
