Mission Statement
We aim to provide a safe and nurturing learning environment where each child can develop and learn to his/her full potential.
The individuality of each pupil is valued and respected at all times.
All pupils will be encouraged to develop their own particular skills and talents. Our aim is to promote the development of the whole child – intellectual, physical, spiritual and social.
We strive to maintain the highest professional standards in teaching and learning at all times. We value the support and co-operation of parents and recognise their important role as the primary educators of their children.
In Scoil Phádraig, we embrace the Catholic Tradition. We guide our pupils towards a deeper understanding of the reality of God’s love in their lives.
We hope each child entrusted to our care will grow up to be an independent, caring and respectful member of society.
