Welcome

We are delighted to welcome you to Royal School Cavan. We hope that this prospectus will answer some
of your questions that you may have about our school and give an insight into what we offer. We are a co-
educational school under the patronage of the Cavan Protestant Local Board of Education. The school has
a long and proud history in education provision since 1611.

We in Royal School Cavan strive for each student to be happy and secure here and to reach their full potential
in a caring and co-operative community. Our school motto ‘Ad Vitam Paramus’ – ‘We are preparing for life’
– summarises the overall ethos of our school. Our overarching vision is to provide ‘A caring and respectful
community that empowers learning’.

Our school is committed to a high-quality education provision as well as an extensive range of extra-curricular
and co-curricular activities which promote the holistic development of our students. Our low teacher-pupil
ratio allows for smaller classes which maximise student engagement.
Our students are encouraged by our excellent team of teachers to work hard and to reach their full
potential. Our staff are constantly up skilling and are innovative in their teaching, learning and assessment
methodologies, teachers are very much aware of the diverse needs of our students. They are supported by
committed Special Educational Teachers (SET).
We are acutely aware that the transition from primary school to post-primary school can be very daunting for
our incoming students. We have a very good support structure in place for all in-coming First-year students,
that endeavours to make this transition as easy as possible for them.

In this prospectus we give you an overview of school life. If you require any further information, please visit
our website, or contact the school directly. We will be delighted to answer any questions you may have.
