Please find the requested data at the link below. The most recent demographic projections for junior infants for 2025 and 2026 in school planning areas in and partially located in County Kilkenny.
In order to plan for school provision and analyse the relevant demographic data, my department divides the country into 314 school planning areas and uses a geographical information system, using data from a range of sources, including CSO census data, child benefit and school enrolment data, to identify where the pressure for school places across the country will arise and where additional school accommodation is needed at primary and post-primary level.
