In 2017 our school was awarded an Erasmus+ grant of just over €80,000. This has enabled our staff to receive expert training opportunities throughout Europe. To date teachers have completed courses in areas such as mental health, literacy and ICT with many more teachers availing of training opportunities this summer. Keep an eye on the blog for further developments.
