About

Central Model Infants’ School is a vibrant primary institution situated on Marlborough Street in Dublin 1, catering for children in the Junior and Senior Infant years as well as a First Class. The school operates as a City Connects hub and holds the Active School flag, reflecting a strong commitment to health, wellbeing and community engagement. Its curriculum blends the Irish National Framework with a holistic, inclusive approach that prioritises active participation, lifelong learning and the development of social and emotional skills. Dedicated support structures—including special‑needs assistants, therapeutic support, and a Home‑School Community Liaison—ensure that every child’s individual needs are met, while programmes such as Reading Recovery and a range of after‑school clubs further enrich the learning experience. The campus features purpose‑built classrooms, a well‑maintained school garden, and a distinctive “Treehouse” space that provides an inspiring environment for creative and exploratory learning. The school’s ethos emphasises partnership with families and local agencies, fostering a collaborative atmosphere that extends beyond the classroom. Through initiatives like the Green School Committee, active‑school projects and regular community‑focused events, Central Model Infants’ School creates a dynamic, supportive setting that encourages children to thrive academically and personally.
