On Monday 20th December 2021 the Department of Education and the State Examinations Commission hosted online a meeting of the advisory group of stakeholders on planning for the State Examinations 2022. The group discussed the arrangements for Leaving Certificate Oral Examinations in Irish and the Modern Foreign Languages and the practical performance tests in Leaving Certificate Music.




Following this meeting the Department press release stated:


“These examinations will take place outside of school time over the first week of the school Easter holidays, with the examinations running in schools during the six-day period Saturday 9 April to Thursday 14 April inclusive. Working with the SEC, and the SEC examiners assigned to the school in each subject, schools will have some flexibility in scheduling the examinations during this period based on local needs.”

Statement from the Department of Education on Storm Barra - 7 December 2021From Department of Education 
Published on 7 December 2021
Last updated on 7 December 2021

 The department is advising that all schools that are currently or forecast to be in a Red or Orange alert area should remain closed tomorrow, 8 December. This will allow for assessment of the impact of Storm Barra to take place.
This includes:
  • Donegal
  • Sligo
  • Leitrim
  • Cork
  • Kerry
  • Waterford
  • Limerick
  • Clare
  • Galway
  • Mayo
  • Wexford
Schools that are no longer in a Red or Orange Alert area can reopen, provided that, if there are concerns, school managers have had an opportunity to check for fallen wires and other serious damage in the vicinity of school buildings. If an individual school (in a yellow area) is still experiencing a particular local issue relating to the storm, the Board of Management can make a decision to remain closed for tomorrow.
All schools should keep up-to-date with the current weather warnings which are carried on all national and local news bulletins and in particular any change in the status warning for their area.

Class hours

The school are currently drawing up a plan for CLASS (Covid Learning & Support Scheme) to provide additional teaching support for students who are at increased risk of learning loss &/or early school leaving &/or educational disadvantage resulting from the impact of Covid. Please see the details on the form by clicking on the button below.

Applications for school transport can be made online at www.buseireann.ie/schooltransport and must be submitted before the last Friday in April . It is important that applications for school transport are made on time as late applicants are not guaranteed a service under the terms of the scheme.
