Deis Initiative
During school year 2004-2005, our school successfully applied for inclusion into the Deis (Delivering Equality of Opportunity in Schools) Programme.
This initiative has been co-ordinated by the Dept. of Education and Skills, to promote social inclusion. The scheme includes support services for curricular areas, home-school liaison services, additional grants etc.
Many initiatives e.g. First Steps Writing, Maths Recovery Programme, First Steps Speaking and Listening and First Steps Reading are embedded into the daily Teaching and Learning of our school.
Further information on DEIS and the Action Plans, relating to DEIS, are available from Principal/Deputy Principal/School Office.
