Working in GETSS:
Galway Educate Together Secondary School is a developing voluntary secondary school which opened in August 2019. In our school, everyone is addressed by their first name, there is no school uniform. We promote excellence in education, inclusion, innovation, and restorative practice. We place a high value on student voice and participation also.

We encourage CPD and support teachers to lead projects they are passionate about. As a growing school, there are an unusually high number of opportunities to lead learning and to help to develop school culture.

In Galway ETSS we encourage a cross-curricular approach where team-teaching, peer observation and collaboration are an integral part of our culture. Our classes are mixed ability, with students very much at the centre of the learning. Our students and teachers use iPads and a virtual learning environment – Teams, to enhance learning. Teachers create their own resources for students, we do not have textbooks at Junior Cycle and have a blended approach at Senior Cycle.

We are committed to high standards and expectations in terms of our learning and teaching. As an Educate Together Secondary School we are guided by the Educate Together Blueprint for Second Level Schools. You can access this HERE

A new site has been identified for our permanent school. This is in Garraun on the Oranmore Coast Road. We will remain in our temporary accommodation in Newtownsmith for the 2025-2026 school year.
