Subject: The Primary School Survey – our school’s results and next steps
Dear Parent/Guardian,
Thank you to everyone who took part in the recent Primary School Survey.
The Department of Education and Youth carried out this survey to find out about the type of schools that parents/guardians prefer.We are now sharing our school’s survey results with you.
The attached survey results show:
The preferences of parents/guardians of children currently enrolled in our school
The results outline the preferences of parents/guardians for:
Co-educational or single-sex provision
Patronage/ethos
Language of instruction (English or Irish)
How to understand the survey results:
The percentages in green and gold show what the parents/guardians who took part in the survey prefer. The red line shows the margin of error. This gives a range around the survey result, showing how much the result might be higher or lower if all parents/guardians of children in our school had responded.
For example, if the whole red line is above 50%, this means it is likely that more than half of all parents/guardians prefer that option, even allowing for the margin of error.
What happens next
The Board of Management will now review the survey results and think about what they mean for our school. As part of this, we want to make sure that parents/guardians, staff, students, and the wider school community can share their views with us. Once we have gathered all feedback, we will consider it carefully and then let you know about any decisions we make and next steps.
For example, if there is a clear preference for a change, the school may submit an ‘expression of interest form’ for change to the department. If this happens, the department will provide us with a dedicated contact person and other supports, to help our school in this process.
Next steps
Please read the attached survey results for our school and guidance document.
You are asked to send any comments or feedback to us at office@glounaguillaghns.ie by 30th September.
Thank you for your support with this survey and we look forward to receiving your feedback.
Your sincerely,
Board of Management














Online communication (รับงานนนทบุรี) relationships are essential for modern connectivity. They foster support, sharing, and a sense of belonging, but require conscious effort. Consistency, empathy, and clarity are key to building strong bonds. While convenient, prioritize authentic interactions and recognize the limitations of screens that cannot fully replicate face-to-face connections.
