"The 5th class students are going to be in the library with the learning support teacher and the 6th class students will stay in the classroom with the teacher. "At this point, it's the only compromise we're going to get. We only found out last Wednesday that there wasn't going to be two teachers. It's been really rough."Meanwhile, Independent Councillor for Galway City Central, Mike Cubbard, told the Independent:
"The Department of Education based their teacher allocation on the numbers from September 2017 and the school was eight pupils short of getting another teacher. There is an appeals process that can be done, but the school failed to do an appeal. "The school also said they will do a full safety audit and the parents accepted that on Friday morning. A small number of parents, possibly four or five, have moved their children to another school, but the majority reluctantly compromised."Scoil Bhríde has not yet made a comment on the matter.
