The Department of Education and Skills has just announced that a brand new post primary school will open in Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath in 2021.  

This is wonderful and welcome news for families of Dunshaughlin and the surrounding areas who now will be offered parental choice for a secondary education on their doorstep.  

CEIST are delighted to have been invited by the Diocese of Meath to seek Patronage of this new school.  As Patron of 107 secondary schools in Ireland there is no doubt about the unparalleled experience in education.  Our reputation speaks for itself with schools that offer excellence in teaching and learning, Values driven education, Breadth of Curriculum, Inclusion, Equity, Diversity and learner centred experience, extra-curricular and co-curricular opportunities in safe, secure and nourishing environment.  A CEIST Catholic co-educational secondary school would provide a real choice for parents in the Dunshaughlin area.

A CEIST school is available to everyone, and endeavours to offer the widest possible educational experience to all the children of an area. CEIST Schools, of course, as in most post-primary schools in Ireland, have Boards of Management including parents, teachers and patron nominees. They are inclusive schools, and cater for students of all faiths and none.

Watch here for just a glimpse of what CEIST have to offer students:-
