Parents, staff and students at St Vincent's girls' secondary school on the northside of the city are objecting to plans to merge it with two other schools
There are proposals to amalgamate the school with the North Monastery boys' school and the North Presentation.
But there is a campaign to keep the school as girls only.
A vigil was held outside St Vincent's School on Wednesday morning by parents who say they want to have a choice to send their daughters to an all girls school or a mixed school in the locality
Parent of one of the pupils, Mairead Hickey, says a mixed school isn't for everyone
