About

Ballyroan Boys National School (BNS) is a primary school dedicated to the education of boys in the Ballyroan area. The school welcomes pupils who have completed Junior and Senior Infants at the neighbouring Scoil Naomh Pádraig, providing a seamless transition into the national curriculum for primary education. BNS places a strong emphasis on a supportive and inclusive learning environment, underpinned by clear school policies that promote safety, good behaviour and the overall wellbeing of each pupil. The school offers a broad range of extra‑curricular activities designed to enrich the pupil experience beyond the classroom. Clubs and programmes include basketball, Lego, computer, art & crafts, as well as a Morning Sports & Games Club and a Homework Club with after‑school care. These opportunities encourage teamwork, creativity and physical development. Admissions are managed through an annual notice and an online application system, ensuring a transparent and organised process for families seeking a place at the school.
