The school provides a broad, balanced curriculum complemented by a range of extra‑curricular programmes. Recent initiatives include the Amber Flag scheme promoting positive mental health, a Coding School Gold Award from Coding Ireland, and an active school programme that encourages physical activity and wellbeing. As a Green School, Scoil Naomh Treasa instils personal responsibility for the environment, tackling litter and waste on the grounds and within the local community.
