For over 40 years, Educate Together has been working to establish inspirational schools for children and young people in Ireland. Educate Together has its roots in the Dalkey School Project National School, which was founded in 1978. A committed group of educationalists and parents established the organisation with the stated aim:
“To advance education in Ireland, to develop and support the establishment of a multi-denominational school or schools which are:-
- Run by Boards of Management, which are predominantly democratic in character.
- Multi-denominational and multi-cultural, having an ethos where every child is equally respected and has equal rights of access to the school regardless of social, cultural, or religious background or personal creed, and where all children are educated together in an atmosphere of respect.
- Child-centred in their approach to education.
- Co-educational and committed to encouraging all children to explore their full range of interests and opportunities without distinction by sex.”
