A North Clare school is in a race against the clock to ensure its survival into the future. Clare's smallest primary school, Furglan National School, has just six days to boost its complement of pupils to 11 before the Department of Education closes its books for the 2025 to 2026 to school year. If the school, which currently has seven enrolled, fails to reach this number, it won't have a guarantee that it will remain open next year. Clare FM's Seán Lyons has been to Furglan to speak to its principal Patricia Vaughan.
