About   Powerstown    ETNS

Powerstown Educate Together National School is a vibrant, inclusive, and forward-thinking school community in Dublin 15. For the 2026/2027 school year, we are proud to offer two classes at every level from Junior Infants to 6th Class in our modern 16-classroom school — providing the ideal balance of individual support and a strong sense of community.

Our school reflects the world we live in, with families from over 68 countries and 62 languages spoken. This rich diversity is at the heart of who we are. As a proud Yellow Flag school, we actively promote inclusion, equality, and intercultural understanding, ensuring every child feels respected, valued, and a true sense of belonging.

We are committed to excellence in teaching and learning. Using a Universal Design for Learning (UDL) approach, we support all children to achieve their goals through inclusive, flexible, and engaging teaching strategies. Our focus on 21st-century skills prepares pupils not just for secondary school, but for life — fostering independence, creativity, critical thinking, and resilience.

Creativity and expression are central to our identity. As a Creative School in partnership with the Arts Council of Ireland, children have rich opportunities to engage with the arts, develop their imagination, and express their ideas in meaningful ways.

We are also deeply committed to sustainability and active citizenship. Our school has been awarded six Green Flags, recognising our leadership in environmental awareness and action. This commitment extends to all areas of school life, encouraging children to become responsible, informed global citizens.

Sport plays a key role in our school community. Through strong partnerships, children participate in a wide range of activities including GAA, rugby, athletics, soccer, and basketball, with opportunities to take part in interschool leagues and competitions — promoting teamwork, confidence, and wellbeing.

At Powerstown ETNS, children’s voices matter. Through active pupil councils and democratic participation, students are empowered to contribute to school decisions, shaping a community where everyone is heard and respected.

Our school extends beyond the classroom, with a thriving school garden and outdoor learning spaces, engaging after-school clubs, and strong parental involvement that enriches the educational experience for all.
