Cushinstown NS is a co-educational Catholic primary school under the Patronage of the Diocese of Ferns. Our core mission is to enable students to achieve their full potential in a positive and caring atmosphere. It is the professionalism of our teaching staff, the vitality of our students and the strength of the local community that makes our school a truly unique school experience. In an effort to develop intellectual, physical, cultural, moral, emotional and spiritual well-being, we constantly endeavour to provide best practice in education for all of our pupils in Cushinstown N.S.

Alongside the educational curriculum we provide students with a unique flavor of extra-curricular experiences. We work alongside the local GAA, soccer and rugby clubs to help develop a love of sport and knowledge of healthy lifestyles in our students. Through our extraordinarily talented teachers we engage in singing, dancing and drama to a high standard. This brilliant mix ensure our students leave Cushinstown as well round young people ready to take on whatever the world has in store for them.
