DEIS schools need a third band for better student resources - principal.
There needs to be another, third band to help students in DEIS schools, one principal has said.
"That separates us from other schools; there's children and parents affected by social issues, drug and alcohol, high crime rates, feuds, unemployment. "My school would be very different to another school who would also be DEIS 1 in another part of Dublin not too far [from here]. "Ideally there should be a broad mixture of children - in an ideal world there wouldn't be high concentrated levels of schools or deprivation."If you have a good mix, a balanced mix like that, it has a positive outcome for everyone"."I've been principal 15 years now, and I remember the first year I started, I think I might have had 600 or 700 applications for one or two jobs," she said.
