My son, who will be four years old in March, is not baptised. He has been rejected from all four national schools in our area – Dublin 6.

Does anyone know if this is the case around Drogheda?

Here is no standard. Each school has it's own enrolment policy. Contact your nearest school for a copy if theirs. Until you have that the discussion is moot.
