Over the past 25 years I have had the privilege of working with and supporting many schools and see our school as standing among the best of these. Our teaching team and additional support teams provide a very high standard of teaching, learning and support for our students. As an Educate Together school we actively place student participation and involvement in the centre of our work - from the daily extra-curricular clubs to evidence-based policy formation and the work of the Board of Management. We are an inclusive school and welcome and include all students irrespective of ability or need. We are informed by the Continuum of Support in all decisions in the school. I look forward to being part of the future of NWETSS and Fiona, the Deputy Principal, and I encourage you to look at our website, follow us on social media and be part of our community. ” — Billy Redmond, Principal https://www.nwetss.ie/about-our-school daily 0.75 2025-11-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8cb41be2339206f78609c9/1623767589370-RSDN6A0BLFX9M3T0G0T9/About+Overview-min.jpg About Our School https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8cb41be2339206f78609c9/1574085000927-L7O0S32TOI1NTNF43DGZ/DECORATION1.png About Our School https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8cb41be2339206f78609c9/1623769406264-MGNU99PIVTXBAGXPYJ6G/mission-min.jpg About Our School - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8cb41be2339206f78609c9/1600858812089-AAHAMAT4CFQULOQPRO67/Billy.jpg About Our School https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8cb41be2339206f78609c9/1600859003912-MOUEMPC509B04F3P56EG/Fionaweb.jpg About Our School https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8cb41be2339206f78609c9/1578573426695-J4JRGWWJEL20JLWPYC0Z/Lorraine%2B%25281%2529.jpg About Our School - Lorraine Kenny, AS Class Teacher, Learning Support and Behaviour for Learning Lorraine graduated from the University of Aberdeen with an MA in History and an MLitt in History from the Research Institute of Scottish and Irish studies.
