Enrol Your Child

Should you wish to apply for a place for your child in our school, please do the following:

  1. Read our enrolment policy,
  2. Complete the Pre-Enrolment Questionnaire (linked below), and
  3. Complete an application form for the school. Application forms are available from the school office.

Pupils in St. Francis Xavier Junior School will receive their enrolment forms through the school in advance of the opening date of school enrolment.

All applications for places received will be responded to within 21 days of the closing day for the submission of applications. Applications for places made after this date will only be considered when the initial waiting list is cleared.

 

We ask that you read our Admissions Policy in full to understand our enrolment procedures.

2025-2026 School Year 

  • Completed mainstream applications will be accepted from 6th – 27th November 2024
  • Children from St. Francis Xavier Junior School will receive enrolment documents from the school in November.
  • Applications for places made after this date will only be considered when the initial waiting list is cleared.

ASD Class Update 2025/2026

  • ASD Class applications for the newly sanctioned classes will be accepted from 26th May until 13th June 2025.
  • Note: St. Francis Xavier’s Primary Senior School (SFX SNS) has been sanctioned to open two new Special Classes catering for pupils with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). While enrolment for these classes will proceed in line with Department of Education guidelines, please be advised that the designated classrooms are currently under construction and are not expected to be completed until late 2025. The date of the opening of the new classes is out of control of the school and Board of Management, as this will be dependent on the builders completion and Department of Education approval of final building standards. Pupils enrolled in these ASD Special Classes will not commence attendance at the school until the classrooms are fully completed, equipped, and resourced in accordance with the relevant Departmental standards.

2026-2027 School Year and Beyond:

  • We only accept applications for school places the year before your child is due to start school. Please check back at that point.
