WHAT WE BELIEVE
Our Ethos
North Kildare ETNS is part of the Educate Together network of equality-based schools. We are:
Child-Centred
We aim to be a place where a child's quest for growth, self-development and knowledge is fully acknowledged, facilitated and encouraged.
Equality-Based
In our school, all students are treated with care and equal treatment regardless of their socio-economic, cultural or religious background.
Democratically Run
We are run by management committees which are democratically elected and run, and the involvement of all parents is sought and encouraged.
Co-Educational
We welcome boys and girls equally and make every effort to ensure active integration and avoid gender stereotypes in both attitude and teaching materials.
