Dear parents,
I am writing to you in relation to our 6th class pupils who will enroll in post-primary school in September, 2021.
There have been significant changes to how post-primary schools offer school places. These schools have a very short window for applications, and parents are urged to be proactive in making sure they apply for school places on time.
The board of management is anxious to ensure that parents are made aware of the options open to them for enrolling their children in post-primary. You are asked to read this notice carefully.
Post-primary schools in the area
In our catchment area, there are three post-primary schools in operation:
Coláiste Pobail Setanta, Phibblestown
Hansfield Educate Together Secondary School
and
Ériu Community College, (based in temporary accommodation in Luttrellstown)
Enrolment for places opens this week
This week, each school will begin accepting applications from our current 6th class pupils for enrolment in their schools for the 2020/21 school-year.
It is very important that parents make themselves fully aware of the enrolment process for each school. These conditions are set out in each school’s enrolment policy, with further information on the schools’ websites.
