Transfer to Post-Primary education is a significant milestone in your child’s life and deciding on where to seek a school place will be one of the most important decisions that you will make as a parent. This leaflet provides key information on the on-line Post-Primary admissions process and signposts you to further information.
We are fortunate to have excellent post-primary schools locally but as they are all over-subscribed each year, parents are advised to read the admissions' criteria for each school before making a decision.
The most recent statistics from our school leavers were as follows:
