Primary School Survey

Last November 2025, the department published a 'Framework and action plan for delivery of increased choice for parents on education provision at primary level'

The main focus of this was an online, school-specific survey. The survey ran from 4 November to 16 December 2025.

The survey targeted:

Parents and guardians of children currently in primary school.
Parents and guardians of children not yet in primary school (aged 0–5).
Primary school staff and Board of Management members.

Participants were asked three main questions regarding the future provision of their local primary school:

Patronage/Ethos: Preference for a denominational (religious) or multi-denominational (non-religious) patron.
Gender Mix: Preference for a co-educational (boys and girls) or single-sex school.
Language: Preference for instruction primarily through the English language or the Irish language.

The Department of Education and Youth has recently provided Oola National School with our school specific results of the Primary School Survey. A period of feedback and consultation now begins.

To view our results see our "Information" section or click here.

We thank all members of our school community for their engagement with this important consultation process.

Our new uniform will be introduced from September 2026 on a phased basis. Initially, existing pupils may wear either the current or the new uniform, and there is no expectation for families to purchase the new uniform immediately. Pupils in 6th class may continue to wear the existing uniform for the full school year if they wish. However, all pupils will be expected to wear a full Oola N.S. school uniform each day, as we aim to eliminate the use of non-uniform leggings, tracksuits, hoodies, shorts etc.

The Oola National School Shop is now open and ready to take orders.
