About
Belmayne Educate Together Secondary School is a co‑educational, multi‑denominational secondary school that operates under the sole patronage of Educate Together. The school’s ethos is built on equality, respect and a culture of care, providing a democratic, student‑centred environment where pupils have a voice in decision‑making. Learning is designed to be progressive and inclusive, encouraging lifelong curiosity, leadership development and the nurturing of friendships within a safe, happy space. The purpose‑built campus features state‑of‑the‑art facilities, including a Lego Innovation Studio used for national First Lego League competitions, a dedicated science and maths laboratory that supports whole‑school SciFest projects, and modern classrooms equipped for a range of well‑being sessions and assemblies. A vibrant extra‑curricular programme offers clubs, sports and creative activities, while the school’s commitment to digital wellbeing is reflected in a phone‑free policy that maximises focus on learning. Regular communication through social media and open evenings keeps the community informed and engaged.
History
A group of parents launched a campaign in 2015 to establish an Educate Together secondary school in Dublin 13. On 13 April 2018 the Minister for Education and Skills announced a 1,000‑pupil school would open in 2019, and on 31 October 2018 Educate Together was granted patronage. The school opened its doors in 2019, becoming the 17th Educate Together secondary school in the country.
