Our Lady's Secondary School Castleblayney
Our Lady's Secondary School came into being in 1971 with the amalgamation of St. Mary's Boys' Secondary School and Meán Scoil Mhuire, Clochar na Trócaire. Enriched by both traditions the school community is a happy, united group, proud of past achievements and striving for future goals. Our most cherished inheritance is the close bond that exists between teachers and pupils.
Our Aim is that each student leaving Our Lady's will know and appreciate his/her own dignity and worth and those of others and will embrace life's challenges positively, having had the opportunity during his/her school-life to develop his/her talents and to realise his/her potential.
Co-education takes account of the movement in society towards integration and equality of opportunity. In the context of the school this means that all students, girls and boys, have the opportunity to avail of tuition in all subject areas. Furthermore, it offers them that opportunity in a natural, healthy environment and facilitates the attainment of high academic standards by both sexes.
