At the request of the student council a review of the structure of the school day and timetable was carried out. It was their request to research the possibility of moving to a half day on Friday in line with all other schools in the area.
Parents were asked “Would you like your son/daughter to have a half day on a Friday?”
Yes 131 (52.4%)
No 113 (45.2%)
No opinion 6 (2.4%)
Students were asked “Would you like to move to a half day on a Friday?”
Yes 252 (55.4%)
No 181 (39.8%)
No opinion 16 (3.5%)
Spoilt votes 6 (1.3%)
As both groups voted in favour the Board of Management at the May monthly meeting have agreed to trial this for the 2019/20 school year. Please note there is no reduction in class contact time. There will still be 42 x 40 min classes = 28 hours tuition
School transport services have agreed to these changes and will run accordingly
