Our Mission


Ballycanew National School is a co-educational, Catholic, primary school, which strives to provide a well ordered, caring, happy and secure atmosphere where the intellectual, spiritual, physical, moral and cultural needs of the pupils are identified and addressed.
While Ballycanew N.S. is a school with a Catholic ethos, it also gives due recognition to all other religions.






East Wing - Our Autism Classes


Our school has three classes for Autistic children. Each class has 6 pupils, 1 teacher, and at least 2 SNAs. A setting such as this allows our pupils to integrate into a mainstream school community, participate as far as possible in the curriculum, along with additional supports in the areas they might encounter difficulty with.
