No letter

No letter for Scoil Réalt na Mara

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 Scoil Réalt na Mara 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.

Getting in

Getting a place at Scoil Réalt na Mara

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

Families apply to Scoil Réalt na Mara 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.

Places in special classes and special schools are allocated with the National Council for Special Education.

Questions about Scoil Réalt na Mara

Is Scoil Réalt na Mara 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 Scoil Réalt na Mara have?

338 pupils in 2025/26. That is −17% since 2019/20.

Does Scoil Réalt na Mara teach through Irish?

No: Scoil Réalt na Mara teaches in English, with Irish as a subject.

Who runs Scoil Réalt na Mara?

Scoil Réalt na Mara has a Catholic ethos. Its patron is Archbishop of Dublin.

How do pupils get a place at Scoil Réalt na Mara?

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 Scoil Réalt na Mara?

The nearest are St Patricks Snr Mixed (0.7 km), St Patricks Jnr Mixed (0.8 km) and Holmpatrick N.S. (0.9 km).
