Drumacruttin National School

About

Drumacruttin National School is a small, two‑teacher, co‑educational primary school located in the rural community of Dunraymond, midway between Monaghan and Ballybay in County Monaghan. The school operates under the patronage of the Church of Ireland Bishop of Clogher, embracing a Christian ethos while warmly welcoming pupils of all faiths and none. It provides education for children from Junior Infants to 6th class, catering for ages four to twelve, and aims to deliver a nurturing, inclusive environment where each child can thrive academically and socially. The school places a strong emphasis on community involvement and holistic development. Recent activities highlighted on the site include a Christmas Experience for pupils, a “Cash for Clobber” collection, and participation in an English Curriculum Evaluation, demonstrating a commitment to both cultural enrichment and academic standards. Although modest in size, the school’s two‑teacher model suggests small class sizes and personalised attention, fostering close relationships between staff, pupils and families.
