Archbishop Martin speaks on pluralism and 'elitism'

Speaking to Catholic school managers, Archbishop Diarmuid Martin said:

"Plualism is something we should welcome but there is a tendency in some circles to use the name pluralism  to opt out of pluralism and keep away from schools with a high proportion of disadvantaged children.

"Pluralism should not produce negative rivalry or antagonism."

But what about all those fee-paying schools run by religious congregations, Belvedere, Gonzaga, Newbridge, Clongowes, Blackrock?
