For over one hundred and sixty years it has been our privilege to share with parents in the education of their deaf children. We welcome both day and residential students. A dedicated team of teachers, assistants, residential care workers and others, with a wealth of experience and expertise is available to each of our students. Transport to and from school is provided for students. Our small clas
s size allows us to offer intensive, individual attention in a relaxed, friendly and caring environment. Students access the normal Department of Education and Skills curriculum, with an exemption from studying Irish. Mary's has been to the forefront in introducing a wide range of progressive programmes to enhance the educational opportunities of our students. These include the Humanities Programme, Environmental and Social Studies and the Social, Personal and Health Education programme. The school also piloted the Junior Certificate Schools Programme (JCSP), Horizon (a pre-employment programme funded by the European Social Fund), and the Leaving Certificate Applied (LCA) and the new Project Maths Programme. Our school has been involved in the Dissolving Boundaries North/South Programme since its inception. Website: www.stmarydeafgirls.ie
