The date
Dear Sirs,
I am writing to express my support for Development Proposal number 226, where it is proposed
to increase the enrolment of Drumragh Integrated College. My reasons for supporting the proposal
include ------------------.
Yours faithfully,
Your signature
Your name
The following are key points from the development proposal:
(i) The College is currently over-subscribed.
(ii) The current Long Term Enrolment numbers are too low to cater for future trends.
(iii) There is insufficient provision for integrated education in the Omagh area.
(iv) There is a significant demand from parents, for the quality and type of education
provided by the College.
(v) There is substantial parental frustration at a lack of places in the College.
(vi) There is both a community-based and province-wide need and desire for greater integration.
The intentions of this development proposal are to:
1. Increase the College’s admissions limit (the number allowed in
each year group 8-12) from 96 to 120.
2. Increase the Sixth Form from 100 to 150 approximately.
3. Increase the Long Term Enrolment number from 580 to 750 over a period of
5 years, expanding incoming year 8 groups by 24 year by year,
and increasing the Sixth Form in response to demand.
4. Obtain mobile classroom accommodation proportionate to increases in student enrolment.
Please consider supporting this recommendation and asking others to do the same; our voice
needs to be heard.
