There are still too many small and "unsustainable" rural schools in Northern Ireland. That's according to the Education Authority's draft strategic plan for the next five years, but some communities are fighting to keep their small schools open. Robbie Meredith reports.
Thank you very much to @TaggartJoel from @BBCgmu for speaking to our Parent Rep Leigh Bates about the importance of rural schools in response to @Ed_Authority latest Draft Area Plan @MMcIlveenDUP

Great to hear @SaveStraidPS on @bbcradioulster rural schools are integral to communities, not only for the children but for parents and local businesses. Straid is exploring integration, which is very exciting! They should have the chance to complete their plan.
Straid PS is moving forward on the path towards integrated status. This would make Straid PS the first integrated PS in the Ballyclare area. If you are interested in applying for a P1 place for your child you can do so here https://t.co/FC2o9AMTZU
