All secondary schools are required to engage in self evaluation. For more general information on this process please click on this link.

Active School

The Department of Education and Skills wishes to recognise schools that strive to achieve a physical educated and physically active school community by awarding them the Active School Flag (ASF). The Active School Flag will be awarded to schools that:

ü  Adhere to DES guidelines regarding PE timetable provision for all students 

ü  Teach a broad and balanced PE curriculum

ü  Inform and invite the whole school community to participate in the ASF process

ü  Self-evaluate current provision in terms of PE, Physical Activity and Partnerships

ü  Plan, implement and monitor improvements for each of the aforementioned areas

ü  Organise an ‘Active School Week’ as part of the annual school calendar

ü  Organise different initiatives during the school year. i.e. lunch times sports

ü  Schools should work to their own time frame in order to implement changes that will have real and tangible benefits.
