We applied for our daughter for 2018 and our son for 2020. Both were accepted and we paid €170 application fee each. On our daughters interview with the principal prior to starting 1st year, she was rude and belittled both my daughter in front of my wife. I phoned to ask why that happened and was told it was none of my business and if we didn’t like it we could go elsewhere. I asked for a refund and was told absolutely not.

We applied to get place in 2017. My daugther got place for 2020 and we had to pay 170euro. We had to move away so we cancelled the place. The principal refused to pay!!! And we still waiting for their answer…
