Children have a right to genuinely free education, and Ireland can easily afford it

Over 2,200 parents completed our 2018 School Costs Survey, and the resounding message was that they are sick of struggling to pay for so-called 'free education', and want to see meaningful change. Barnardos is calling on all politicians to finally tackle the burden of school costs and make free education a political priority.

You can support this call by adding your name to our open letter. We'll send a copy of this letter to each TD, along with your comments, and let them know that their constituents want them to take action on this issue.
