About
Kilkenny School Project is a co‑educational primary school that has been learning together since 1987. The school is founded on an equality‑based, democratically run and child‑centred ethos, welcoming children of all faiths and non‑religious backgrounds. A strong emphasis is placed on equality, respect and inclusive practice, ensuring that every pupil feels valued and able to participate fully in their education. The school operates a vibrant community framework that includes an Executive Committee, Board of Management, PTA, Student Council and Environmental Committee, all of which contribute to a supportive and participatory learning environment. A rich calendar of events – ranging from maths week and cultural performances to seasonal fairs and environmental projects – reflects a broad extracurricular programme. Resources such as detailed school policies, timetables, booklists and regular bulletins are readily available to families, underpinning transparent communication and organised school life.
