No letter

No letter for St Johns N.S.

Ireland publishes no exam results school by school, and section 53 of the Education Act 1998 restricts comparing schools by them, so this school has no letter and nothing here ranks it. Its facts are the Department of Education’s; its inspection reports are linked below.

What the Department of Education does publish for St Johns N.S. is on this page: its pupils each September since 2015/16, girls and boys, its patron and ethos, whether it teaches through Irish, whether it is in DEIS, and its inspection reports.

Newspapers print lists of how many of a school’s leavers go on to college. Those count destinations, not exam results, and depend on who a school takes in; we don’t use them.

Inspections

Inspection reports on St Johns N.S.

The Department of Education’s Inspectorate visits schools and publishes its reports. The reports describe what inspectors saw; they give no overall grade, and we don’t make one. Reports for this school on gov.ie ↗

Inspectors visit every kind of school. Whole-school evaluations look at teaching and learning, leadership and management; subject inspections look at one subject; follow-through inspections check whether earlier advice was taken. Each report is published on gov.ie with the school’s response.

Getting in

Getting a place at St Johns N.S.

Every school admits under its own published admission policy; no admissions numbers are published.

Families apply to St Johns N.S. directly. Children can start once they are four and must be in school by six; the school’s yearly admission notice gives the dates for applying and for its decisions.

A school with more applicants than places admits on the criteria in its admission policy, often brothers and sisters, the area it serves and, for post-primary schools, its feeder primaries. A family refused a place can appeal.

It is in DEIS, so it has extra support for pupils from disadvantaged areas. Places in special classes and special schools are allocated with the National Council for Special Education.

Questions about St Johns N.S.

Is St Johns N.S. a good school?

We don’t grade it: Ireland publishes no exam results school by school, and section 53 of the Education Act 1998 restricts comparing them. Its inspection reports on gov.ie, a visit and a talk with the principal will tell you more than any table could.

How many pupils does St Johns N.S. have?

165 pupils in 2025/26. That is −12% since 2019/20.

Does St Johns N.S. teach through Irish?

No: St Johns N.S. teaches in English, with Irish as a subject.

Who runs St Johns N.S.?

St Johns N.S. has a Catholic ethos. Its patron is Archbishop of Dublin.

How do pupils get a place at St Johns N.S.?

Apply to the school directly. It publishes an admission policy and a yearly admission notice with its dates; if more children apply than it has places, it admits on the criteria in its policy.

Which schools of the same kind are near St Johns N.S.?

The nearest are Scoil Colmcille Senior (0.4 km), Scoil Cholmcille Junior N.S. (0.5 km) and Gaelscoil Phadraig (0.9 km).
