The rush to close schools will have massive repercussions over the entire education system, public and private as outlined in your article (Public school system chaos, July 3). This is an important message for parents whose children attend schools not listed for closure. They must ask hard questions of the Government about the dodgy capacity figures, and how their schools will be affected with large influxes of kids from other schools. Parents of out of area children currently enrolled in affected schools (Miles Franklin, Evatt, Kaleen, Maribyrnong, Aranda, Weetangera, Bonython, Calwell, Chisholm, Monash) need to know if their children will be given lower priority than displaced kids, or if the Government plans to house any overflow in demountables.
