A school in East Cork is set to move from Catholic to Cork Education and Training Board patronage from the 1st of September.
Kyle National School, which is situated between Killeagh and Youghal, will become known as Kyle Community National School, when the change comes into effect the coming academic year.
The school will move to the multi-belief and values curriculum, ‘Goodness Me, Goodness You’, taught in community national schools.
The Echo reports it is the first instance a school has divested from Catholic patronage in the diocese.
