About

Killybegs Common National School is a co‑educational primary school serving the local community of Killybegs. The school operates a full‑day schedule from 9.20 am until 3.00 pm, with staggered departure times for junior and senior infants (2.00 pm) and for the older classes (3.00 pm). It provides a structured curriculum for early years and first‑class pupils, fostering a supportive environment that encourages both academic progress and personal development. The school places a strong emphasis on community engagement, regularly updating parents through a notice board and a dedicated news section that highlights student achievements and local partnerships, such as collaborations with the Bridge Street Community Shop. Facilities are organised to accommodate the different class groups, and the school’s timetable is designed to balance instructional time with opportunities for extracurricular activities and social interaction.
