Golden National School is a place where children are encouraged to grow and develop in a supportive, positive and enjoyable atmosphere.

We place great importance on fostering all aspects of each child’s development – social, emotional, physical, moral and cultural, as well as academic. Our core aims are to provide a broad and comprehensive education, to recognise the needs and to develop the talents of each pupil.

We are a caring school, rooted in our local parish community where we hope to be central to everyday life. We strive to hand on and live up to Christian values and to show genuine concern for one another. Individuality and Differences are respected, diversity is a resource and our mutual cultural heritage is celebrated.

At Golden National School we strive to promote, both individually and collectively, the professional and personal development of teachers through Continuous Professional Development programmes.

Golden National School will encourage the involvement of parents through home/school communications and through their involvement in the Parents Association.

Golden National School will endeavour to enhance the self-esteem of everyone in the school community, to imbue in the pupils respect for people and property and to encourage in them the idea of being responsible.

Golden National School will promote gender equity amongst the teachers and pupils.
