ETHOS
St. Mary’s CBS, Clonmel is a Catholic primary school under the patronage of the Bishop of Waterford and Lismore Diocese. The policies, practices and attitudes of the school are based on Christian values.
St. Mary’s has the welfare of the student, in all matters, as its primary objective. The aim of our school is to provide a safe, secure, structured and stimulating educational environment for each student.
Thus the responsibility of the school is to help each student reach their fullest potential. This means fostering the spiritual, moral, intellectual, social and cultural development of each student.
It is recognised that the realisation of this ethos derives from the existence of a strong sense of community within the school where the staff feel valued and empowered. It also derives from a high level of co-operation among the partners in Education, i.e., Department of Education, Board of Management, Principal, Staff and Parents- where the contribution of parents to the school is valued and encouraged. It depends intrinsically on the interest and positive support of Board of Management Members, Staff, Parents and Students.
