Admissions Criteria

We welcome all new families to our Gaelscoil.  

You do not need to speak Irish to send your child to our school.

The Board of Governors of Gaelscoil na Spéiríní has determined that the following criteria shall be applied, in order set down below, in the event of the school being oversubscribed.  Only children of compulsory school age will be admitted.  In the application of each criterion, priority will be given to children regarded by the Board of Governors, on the basis of supporting evidence from parents/guardians and/or Statutory agencies, as having special circumstances, (i.e. medical, social, security) which would make it desirable that the applicant attend Gaelscoil na Speirini rather than another school.

Children of compulsory school age who attended Naíscoil na Spéiríní.

Children of compulsory school age who have attended a Naíscoil.
