Latest Guidance in Relation to Covid-19 and Contact Tracing in School Settings

Thu, 10 Mar 2022 10:51:00 GMT

Following a meeting on 20th January 2022, the National Public Health Emergency Team (NPHET) advised that the prevailing profile of the disease in Ireland and the available evidence and experience of Omicron internationally allowed for a fundamental change in the management of COVID-19. The NPHET advised that this should entail a transition, in broad terms, from a focus on regulation and population wide restrictions to a focus on public health advice, personal judgement and personal protective behaviours. Specifically, following that meeting, the NPHET advised that there was no longer a continuing public health rationale for the majority of the public health measures that were in place at that time. It therefore advised that a range measures could be removed, with a small number of mandatory requirements remaining in place. This was agreed by Government and implemented on 22nd January 2022.

Board of Management Annual Report 2020-21

Mon, 01 Nov 2021 15:55:00 GMT

The last two years have been unusual ones in all schools throughout the country. Each in their own way had to prioritise Health and Safety over everything else, and the time and energy of the Board of Management was taken up predominantly in ensuring that protocols and procedures were in place to help minimise the possibility of members of our school community contracting Covid-19. That being said, all else did not come to a standstill and a number of other initiatives and projects were taken on by the Board of Management or by staff, with the co-operation and blessing of the Board. The Board of Management Annual Report for 2020-21 which outlines some of this great work is available by clicking here or by searching the "Parents Communications" section under the "Parents" tab.

All seem to have settled in very well and we hope their time with us will be happy and fulfilling.
