A message from IPPN President Louise Tobin
As another school year draws to a close, I would like to thank you for all you have done in leading your school this year. To the fore is always the teaching and learning of the pupils, combined and often overtaken by the onerous task of managing and leading the organisation.
I have visited many schools this year and each one is an exemplar of our primary education system. I have seen happy, engaged pupils; warm welcoming staff; safe and conducive learning environments, all led by our Principals and Deputy Principals. We are very lucky to have such a hardworking, conscientious, talented cohort of school leaders.

If you have made the decision to retire or step back from leadership this school year, we wish you every happiness and fulfilment in the future and thank you for your leadership. Do please email jackie.oreilly@ippn.ie to let us know.
To offer professional support to the new principal from the very start of their time as a school leader, we would appreciate if you would please ask them to contact Jackie. Go raibh maith agat!
