About

St. Martin de Porres National School is a Catholic primary school under the patronage of the Archbishop of Dublin, situated in Tallaght, Dublin 24. It provides a caring, inclusive learning environment where children of all races and religions are welcomed and encouraged to reach their full potential. The school’s ethos is built on partnership with families and the wider community, ensuring that every child benefits from a supportive network. The curriculum follows a child‑centred, holistic approach, deliberately balancing academic, physical, emotional and spiritual development. Lessons are designed to nurture curiosity and critical thinking while promoting health, wellbeing and moral values. Facilities support this vision, with dedicated spaces for classroom learning, sports and creative activities, as well as resources such as a school calendar, supply lists and uniform provision to streamline daily life. Regular updates and a range of useful documents—including policies on safeguarding, health and nutrition—demonstrate the school’s commitment to transparency and high standards.
