LAST DAY – SURVEY CLOSES TODAY (Dec 16) 

16.12.2025

This is your final chance to have a say on the future of your local primary school.

The Irish Government’s Primary School Survey closes today. If you are a parent, future parent, or someone who cares about protecting family values in education, your submission matters.

If you want to keep your local Christian primary school Christian, preserving its ethos and its ability to instil Christian family values, you must speak now. The same applies to parents who wish to protect other denominational schools.

Not making a submission doesn’t keep things neutral — it ensures that well-organised left-wing activist groups will shape the future of Irish primary education instead. They are mobilised, they are submitting, and they fully intend to influence what your children are taught.

We have already held webinars on this issue, outlining what is at stake and how parents can respond. If you haven’t yet made your submission, today is the day.

Make your submission here (deadline TODAY):

There are serious concerns about this survey. These include:

• The survey was initially open and vulnerable, allowing non-parents to submit responses multiple times for at least a week
• No clear way to verify how many false or activist-driven entries may already exist

Crucially, the Natural Women’s Council has warned that losing a Christian ethos could remove a school’s ability to opt out of harmful content under Section 9(d) of the Education Act 1998, especially as the standard curriculum becomes increasingly shaped by Critical Social Justice ideology.

The Natural Women’s Council have also produced excellent educational content comparing Catholic Social Justice vs Critical Social Justice:

Speak now. Protect parental rights. Protect your child’s education. Today is the deadline.
