Shared Education

The Department of Education are committed to a process of encouraging schools across Northern Ireland to partner together more systematically.  In particularly, they want schools that traditionally serve the protestant or catholic community to come together.

The goals of developing these partnerships include:

  • Improving the standards of achievement of all our pupils;
  • Increasing the skills of staff in partnering schools;
  • Enhancing the use of resources of the schools involved;
  • To help children develop more friendships across the community;
  • To empower all stakeholders to be able to embrace diversity;
  • To impact community relations now and in the future.

We have enjoyed a long-standing friendship with Larne and Inver Primary School and more recently Seaview IPS. We hope that these partnerships will continue to grow as we embed our collaborative experiences through Shared Education funding.  

Currently, the Shared Education funding is allowing us to work together to develop our cross-curricular skills whilst exploring our cultural differences and creating new and lasting friendships.
