Taney Parish Primary School
Taney Parish Primary School is a co-educational national school. It is also the parish school of the Church of Ireland parish of Taney, here in Dundrum.
There are 23 teachers and 417 pupils in Taney School in a double stream school with two classes at each level from Junior Infants to 6th Class. The school partakes in a wide range of activities including Green School and Active Flag activities - all of these can be seen in more detail on our website www.taneyschool.ie
The school is above all a happy school where pupils enjoy coming each morning - a caring community of adults and children, where each is valued for their own unique contribution and effort. Taney School has a long tradition of providing the widest range of opportunities for children from the arts to sport and crucially and centrally in the academic area.

Safeguarding Trust
Hundreds of children visit the Churches and Parish Centre of Taney Parish for worship, Sunday School, etc and for other social, educational and recreational purposes each week. The Church’s ministry to them is a priority for the Parish and it is only possible because of the commitment of adults who are prepared to work with children. Safeguarding Trust is designed to protect and enhance that ministry.
Taney Parish seeks:
- To create a safe environment which will promote healthy and fulfilling participation of children and minimise the possibility of harm, either deliberate or accidental.
- To encourage safe practices for those who work with children.
- To safeguard those who work with children from the consequences of unfounded accusations
A Training Session has been held in the Parish giving all those who work with children a full introduction to child protection and best practice. Should you have any concerns or questions contact a member of the Parish Safeguarding Trust Panel below:
Rev. Nigel Pierpoint, Charles Sloane, Trilly Keatinge and Helen Geoffroy
