Galway Educate Secondary School is a Member School of
Sanctuary. This means we strive to make our school as safe, welcoming and inclusive
as possible for all students and their families.
By adopting the three Sanctuary Principles, LEARN/ACTION/ SHARE, we are
becoming an ever more inclusive and empathetic place of intercultural learning and
practice. We are learning to understand and respond to the challenges and needs of
those who seek sanctuary in our school, our community, in Ireland and in the wider
world. We celebrate and welcome diversity in all its wonderful forms and colours and we
are proud to act as a beacon of sanctuary and kindness in our community.
We signed our pledge in January 2023 and are working to become a Champion School of Sanctuary.
