Aims and Ethos at Saint Ronan's

Ethos

The school has a distinctive character and it is this charm, this magic, that people fall in love with.

It is a family school with an informal and happy atmosphere where staff are approachable and mud unremarkable. In a world where children seem to grow up ever faster,

Saint Ronan’s provides a happy environment for children to remain just that. We want the children to enjoy school, relish the opportunities offered and be inspired to work hard, to be kind, gentle, courteous and honest.
