The school is an important local institution for families in the surrounding townlands. It provides second level education within the public system and is part of the Committee's countywide network.
The school and its place
The school's character reflects its location and the community it serves. Staff know the local primary schools and the families who make the journey into second level each year.
Irish is the language of learning and of much of the school day. The school also supports students who are building their Irish language confidence.
Learning
The school follows the national curriculum and offers junior cycle and senior cycle programmes. Subject choices and programme options vary, so families should consult the school's current prospectus. Support is available for students with additional needs, and the school plans transitions with primary schools and with further education providers.
Beyond the classroom
Sport, music, trips and community projects add to school life. The school also takes part in county and national programmes that broaden what students can try. The exact activities change from year to year.
Admission
Each school publishes its admission arrangements and application dates. Contact the school directly for a prospectus and for advice about a place. The Committee's education office can help with general questions about the network.
