Schoolbooks Scheme for the 2025/26 school year.
For the 2025/26 school year all students in the free education system will receive free schoolbooks and a range of classroom resources. Schools now have responsibility for providing schoolbooks and core classroom resources to all students at the start of the forthcoming school year. The scheme eliminates the cost to parents/guardians of providing schoolbooks and core classroom resources.
All schoolbooks and core classroom resources provided under the scheme will remain the property of the school so that they can be reused in future years (where applicable). School Books will be provided on loan to students for the duration of their Junior or Leaving Cert Cycle and must be returned to school at the end of that cycle.
To maintain the school books and classroom resources in good condition for use in future years all students are expected to take care of their schoolbooks and classroom resources and keep them in good condition during the period that they are in their possession. We strictly prohibit writing on school books.
Please see the list of books that we will provide each student year group with prior to the start of school in August. Collection details are set out below from the school’s partner, School Necessities. Should you be unable to collect your books from them on the allocated day, you should contact School Necessities on (051) 393606 to arrange an alternate pick up day.
