About
Rathcoole Educate Together National School is a co‑educational, multi‑denominational primary school that follows the Educate Together ethos of equality, respect, and child‑centred learning. The school delivers the Irish primary curriculum through a progressive, inquiry‑based approach that encourages pupils to develop critical thinking, creativity and social responsibility. Emphasis is placed on inclusive education, with dedicated provision for children on the autism spectrum and a strong focus on wellbeing and personal development. The school recently relocated to a modern, purpose‑built facility on Graydon Road, Newcastle, Co Dublin (D22 PVY3). The new premises provide spacious classrooms, specialist learning areas and accessible outdoor play spaces designed to support a wide range of activities and learning styles. Transport links are facilitated by Bus Eireann, and the school maintains an up‑to‑date calendar and school‑times information for families. Rathcoole ETNS actively manages enrolment through a transparent waiting list system for the 2025/2026 academic year, and offers pre‑enrolment and autism class places for the 2026/27 year. The website is currently under construction, with photographs removed in line with recent privacy guidance, but essential information such as admissions, policies and contact details remain accessible.
