Welcome to Sligo Grammar School

It is my privilege as Headmaster to write this introduction for our school website.

The keystones to Sligo Grammar School’s success include respect, trust, co-operation, participation, consultation, collaboration and teamwork. Our enthusiastic and dedicated staff place great emphasis on a holistic education. Such efforts are channeled so that our pupils develop the characteristics of good, reliable citizens, fit to take their place in society. Together with a fine tradition of sport and community involvement, the school offers a wide range of activities to ensure the personal and social development of the whole child.  

Our Mission Statement below explains more formally what we aspire to achieve…

One Body, One Spirit

“Sligo Grammar School aims to promote excellence in an inclusive and supportive community that reflects Christian values, where each member is enabled to achieve their full potential in life and in learning. “

It is our hope that this website will give you a flavour of school life, as well as being informative and helpful.  We hope that our website will reflect the welcoming and homely atmosphere found within the portals of Sligo Grammar School and convey a little of what makes our school such a special place.  I encourage you to have a look at our on-line prospectus.
