School Unifrom

Irish schools have a uniform policy, which means every student must wear a uniform when attending school. Every school has a different colour and uniform design. Wearing a school uniform might be something our students aren’t used to before they arrive, yet it is normal in Ireland. Our host families or coordinators will take our students uniform shopping.

Primary School is broken down into the following years

• Junior Infants (age 4 - 6)
• Senior Infants (age 5- 7)
• First Class (age 6 - 8)
