No letter

No letter for Gaelscoil Phadraig

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 Gaelscoil Phadraig 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 Gaelscoil Phadraig

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 Gaelscoil Phadraig

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

Families apply to Gaelscoil Phadraig 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 teaches every subject through Irish. 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 Gaelscoil Phadraig

Is Gaelscoil Phadraig 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 Gaelscoil Phadraig have?

118 pupils in 2025/26. That is −21% since 2019/20.

Does Gaelscoil Phadraig teach through Irish?

Yes: every subject at Gaelscoil Phadraig is taught through Irish.

Who runs Gaelscoil Phadraig?

Gaelscoil Phadraig has a Catholic ethos. Its patron is An Foras Pátrúnachta.

How do pupils get a place at Gaelscoil Phadraig?

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 Gaelscoil Phadraig?

The nearest are St Columbanus National School (0.2 km), St Johns N.S. (0.9 km) and Scoil Cholmcille Junior N.S. (0.9 km).
