About

The school follows the Irish National Curriculum while enriching learning through programmes such as the INPP (Individualised Numeracy and Problem‑solving Programme) and a thriving robotics club that competes at regional levels. A commitment to inclusive education is evident in policies covering autism support, learning support, and equal opportunity, ensuring every child can progress confidently. The school’s facilities support a holistic approach: dedicated spaces for active play, a well‑maintained sports programme recognised with Best Sports School awards, and safe routes initiatives that promote walking and cycling. Comprehensive policies on health and safety, medicine administration, and digital use create a secure environment, while regular events—ranging from Christmas draws to community collaborations with local hurling clubs—foster strong ties between pupils, families and the wider community.
