Aug 06, 2024

A public meeting is to be held in Markethill next month to address the "deplorable state" of the Markethill High School building.

The purpose of the event, which will be held on Monday, September 16, under the auspices of Markethill District Loyal Orange Lodge No. 10, is to hear the thoughts of the local community.

The school, which was built in 1959 for 200 pupils, currently has over 500 pupils and has suffered from years of underfunding.

In the intervening years since its opening, mobile classrooms have been erected to accommodate the growing number of pupils attending the school.

However, questions have been raised to why the school has not seen any significant capital investment to help it cope with the demand. Read the full story here.
