C.B.S Primary school has two classes for children with Autism. Each class has 6 pupils, 1 teacher and a minimum of 2 SNAs. Our vast experience in the area of special education needs allows us to give additional support to our children in these classes. Children in our Autism classes are given the opportunity to integrate with mainstream classes where possible, and we also use reverse integration, where children from mainstream classes come to learn in our Autism classes.

We aim to ensure that every child receives the necessary care and attention they deserve in a supportive and inclusive learning environment. Our Autism classes offer a comprehensive curriculum tailored to meet the individual needs of your child, focusing on their development, social skills and academic progress.

Our school has excellent facilities to support our children with additional needs. We have 2 Multi-Sensory rooms, an Activity room, Sensory Garden and a Playground.

All children in our school are provided with the opportunity to develop to their full potential, and we are very much an all-inclusive school.

Parents who wish to have their children considered for a place in our Autism classes should submit an application to the National Council for Special Education (NCSE) at this email address parentsnotify@ncse.ie , and also complete an enrolment application on our website.
