Mission Statement / Aims

Mission St. Ráiteas Misin

The Christian Brothers' Primary School, Armagh is inspired by the vision of Blessed Edmund Rice and is committed to the development and growth of the whole person. Fundamental to this inclusive ethos of our school is the recognition of each pupil as an individual with his/her own special abilities, gifts, needs, personality and cultural background.

Our staff are committed to developing the pupils' self-awareness, independence, self-confidence and a self valuing that enables each to take up his/her own life and to make the right choices.

To this end, our concern centers on the integral development of each child so that all may be enabled to achieve their full potential.
