Vision and Aims

St. Patrick’s N.S is a primary school under the patronage of the Church of Ireland. We aim to reflect the characteristic spirit of the Church of Ireland ethos.

Our school welcomes children from the Church of Ireland community and children of other denominations and faiths and those with none. A culture of inclusivity is fostered within the wider school community.

St. Patrick’s N.S is an inclusive school as defined by the Equal Status Act 2000. We are committed to equality of access to children with special educational needs and children with general learning disabilities; procedures are in place to identify children who require additional support and to secure the additional resources to assist them in furthering their education.


We wish to create a secure and caring environment in which the children in our care can develop to their fullest potential.
