We here at Tobar an Léinn are very much looking forward to welcoming all of our pupils back to school in the coming week. All parents should have received a letter detailing all of the changes that will be taking place in order to ensure a safe return to school for all pupils and staff.

Below are links to our School Policy Statement and Risk Assessment regarding Covid 19, and also the Covid 19 Response Plan published by the Department of Education and Skills. 

​

Tobar an Léinn has updated both its Acceptable Use Policy in light of the current circumstances and distance learning. We have also updated our Admissions Policy. We welcome any parental feedback on these before 20th May when we plan to have them ratified by the Board of Management.
