Scoil
Mhuire Caisleán Nua had an enrolment is 119 pupils of mixed gender. The teaching staff is comprised of 4 class
Teachers including a teaching Principal, 1 Resource teacher, 1 shared Learning Support Teacher and 1 Special Needs Assistant.
Scoil Mhuire has the welfare
of the students in all matters, as its primary objective.
The aim of our school is to
provide a safe, structured and stimulating educational environment for each
student. Thus the responsibility of the
school is to help each student reach his/ her fullest potential. This means fostering the spiritual, moral,
intellectual, social and cultural development of each student.
It depends intrinsically on
the interest and positive support of Board of Management members, staff,
parents and students. The school depends
on the grants and teacher resources provided by the Department of Education and
Skills.
