COMMUNITY SCHOOLS/COLLEGES – A VIEW FROM THE DEPARTMENT
“It is understandable how many people would consider the community schools as Catholic schools. Yet the Deed of Trust does not bestow any right to give priority enrolment to Catholics in the way a voluntary school can. The school must serve the community however composed. There is an obligation to enrol regardless of faith tradition or none. Furtyhermore the religious education or worship to be provided is not determined by the wishes of a patron but the obligation in the Deed to provide for the religious needs of those who actually attend the school. A comparable set of obligations applies in designated ETB community colleges (Seán Ó Foghlú, Secretary General, Department of Education and Skills at the Association of Trustees of Catholic Schools Forum, 18 May, 2016)”.
