It is a private school. I don't know what you mean by a "parochial" school.
It is funded entirely by the fees, which are paid by the parents.

Parochial schools are church-run schools and may hire and teach within the
guidelines of their own teachings. Thus, a Catholic school can ask that
only practicing Catholics need apply, or a Baptist school may restrict its'
hiring to only those that have graduated from approved Buble colleges. As
long as the teacher is certified according to the standards of the state,
this is acceptable. It would seem to me that if the school was entirely run
by monies paid by parents or by trust funds that those parents should have
the final say-so. I am thinking the schools you refer to are in England and
not in Ireland. At least I hope that is the case. Maybe, for your
children's sake, a move back to the "Old Sod" might be advisable?


Yes, you are correct. However, it is too late for a move back to the old
sod. [sigh].
