Enrolment of infants due to start in August, takes place in February on a date notified by press advertisement. Pupils can be taught through the medium of Gaelic or English. Parents should indicate preference on enrolment form. Children who will be five years old before the last day of the following February are eligible for enrolment. At the time of enrolment, parents should bring their child’s birth certificate with them to the school and should inform the school of any medical problems or special needs which their child may have.
Parents and new entrants have an opportunity in the Summer term to meet staff and discuss any matters relating to their child’s education. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to inform the school of any subsequent change in the child’s medical record
