Belfast School has a lot to offer you and your family

We believe that our key task is to teach children so that they can succeed both educationally and socially in society.

We view this as a partnership, sharing responsibility among the school, home and community. Consequently we will try to provide the very best learning environment and opportunities for the children, as well as setting firm guidelines of behaviour to enable this to happen.

We like to treat each child as an individual, providing them with a warm, caring supportive environment.

You, as parents and caregivers have our support in all that you do for your children and we ask that you support us in our work. Our caring team - teaching staff, teaching aides, secretary, caretakers and cleaners always do their best for the children’s education. We all enjoy seeing parents/ caregivers here at school, visiting, helping, or meeting with the children.
