Poll: Would you tell a school principal that you couldn't afford your child's education?

Many parents struggle to afford sending their children to school.

PRIMARY SCHOOL PRINCIPALS have said that more should be done to help people cope with the rising cost of sending their children to school.

With a recent study finding that primary school costs are around €395 per year, principals have encouraged parents who are struggling financially to let the school know.

But they know it can be awkward for parents to admit they are struggling and come forward for help.

This morning we’re asking: Would you tell a school principal that you couldn’t afford your child’s education?


Poll Results:

Yes (3427)
No (2199)
I don't know (916)
