Why do parents like me send their children to CEIST schools?
Parents choose CEIST schools for lots of reasons. Here are five obvious ones to start with.
1. CEIST schools ave a reputation for excellence. We believe in
setting high standards for teaching & learning and we have the results to show , e.g. 11 out of 19 of the recipients of the prestigious Naughton Scholarship this year were students of CEIST schools.
2. Our schools are inclusive; inclusive of students of all abilities and interests; inclusive in terms of those of all faiths and those who have no faith.
3. CEIST schools believe in a values-rich approach to Education.
Education isn’t just about what happens in the head, it is about educating the heart and the hands as well. This is what a holistic vision of education means.
4. In CEIST schools parents know their children are well looked
after; we place a huge value on the pastoral care of our
students.
5. Finally our schools are local schools, based in the community in
which students live. This is important to parents. It gives choice to parents and for parents who want a CEIST school, it
is good to know you will not have to put your children on buses to CEIST schools miles away from your home.
