North Presentation Secondary School have said they are disappointed following the decision of the Religious Sisters of Charity to pull out of amalgamation process to form a co-ed school between North Pres and St Vincent's.

The merger of the two girls schools has been in the works since 2020, and in a statement released today, the Catholic Education of Irish Schools Trust (CEIST), the Patron of North Pres, said it is "with disappointment that we learned of the decision... to withdraw from the amalgamation process at this very late stage."

In October 2023, the Department of Education approved the merger for September which would have seen both northside secondary schools coming together and welcome both boys and girls. But following opposition from students and parents - Patron of the St Vincent's school, the Education Office of the Religious Sisters of Charity, said yesterday that "there is little hope of a successful amalgamation."

North Pres said: "Over the last few weeks, a great deal of misleading and false information has been put into the public domain. This has caused immense hurt and upset to the North Presentation School community.

"CEIST and the Presentation School Community have refrained from commenting to date out of respect for the process and the other parties involved and to avoid adding to the unrest in the local community."

North Pres will begin welcoming both boys and girls in the new school year. The school is holding it's open day for both boys and girls on November 17th and said "the school community looks forward to welcoming both girls and boys to participate in our newly expanding curriculum."

"Our staff and management at North Presentation have always dedicated themselves to meeting the needs of all students and parents in North Cork City and continue to be at the forefront in ensuring top-class education in a caring and welcoming and inclusive environment.

"We look forward to working with the school community as they embark on this new and very exciting chapter in the schools' history," the CEIST statement said.

Meanwhile, St Vincent's will remain an all-girls school.

In the school's statement yesterday, it said: "we have decided that we have no option but to withdraw from the process. This will result in St. Vincent's Secondary School remaining an all-girls school on the present site.

"We want to acknowledge - with regret - the potential impact this decision will have for the North Presentation Secondary School Community.

"St Vincent's has a very well-deserved reputation in terms of academic excellence and as a caring and nurturing school community. We believe that this is a lost opportunity for St Vincent's to be part of the development of a broad, inclusive and modern Post Primary facility in the North Cork City area on the 4.5 acres North Presentation site."

Cork TD Mick Barry said repealing the merger decision was "a victory."

He said: "RSOC tried to close the school and should run it no longer. The state has funded the school for years and now takes full ownership. Parents, teachers, and students have fought the closure. I will continue to argue for mixed education but today is a victory."

School History

Nano Nagle College is a co-educational secondary school located in Farranree, a suburb in the north side of Cork city.

The Secondary School was originally situated in Gerald Griffin Street, Cork but, due to lack of space in this location a new school was built in Farranree in 1969.

This meant that when students finished Primary School, they could continue with their education up to Intermediate Certificate Level.

The Teachers were National Teachers and the school was still under the Primary Branch of the Department of Education.

In 1960 the school became a full Secondary School under the Principal, Sr. Margaret Mary Galvin (Sr. Mairead). This school remained on Gerald Griffin Street up to the late 1960s. Due to the volume of students continuing on to second-level education, a new school had to be built in the large catchment area of Farranree. The Presentation Sisters had already established a Convent and girls Primary School on this site. Again, due to increasing numbers an extension had to be added to the existing secondary school building in Farranree. The official opening of the extension took place on March 24, 1986. Today, Presentation Secondary School, Farranree is fully opened to meet the demands of a modern and progressive education for the girls of the surrounding areas.

I n 2023, North Presentation Secondary School became known as Nano Nagle College, a co-educational school with new T4 subjects and new ASD classes. Following in the footsteps of Nano we continue to respond to the changing needs of our community.

NORTH Presentation Secondary School held a very successful open evening recently as they outlined their plans for their new era as a co-educational school from next September which also includes a new mission statement, new subjects, new school uniform and crest.

A large crowd attended the open night in the Farranree secondary school which featured an address from their principal Adrian Gibbs who said the school is looking forward to the future. 

“We are not afraid of change. How you taught somebody in 1970 is not how education works in 2022 when we are preparing teenagers to go into the future. We are proud of our past, but we are not stuck in it. The three things we focused on at our open night were challenge, choice, and change. We are now a fully inclusive school because we are co-educational from September 2023. We will be able to take boys and girls into every year group from first year straight through to sixth year,” he said.

The secondary school principal said from September 2023, they will also have three special classes, after receiving the go-ahead from the Department of Education. “We have had three special classes sanctioned for our school which is brilliant news. 

The three special classes will mean there is space for 18 new students in September 2023. We wanted to ensure our special classes could take both boys and girls. It is fantastic news for local students and families.

“There is a lot of change and a lot of excitement,” admitted Mr Gibbs ahead of the change to a co-educational school. 

“We started this process two years ago when we were looking at our community. We didn’t want to rush this. This isn’t a girl’s school that is suddenly taking in boys. This is something that teachers, staff, parents, and students were all involved in. A lot of the impetus came from the desire from parents to have a son and daughter in the same school.

“Our school has a long tradition in Farranree. A good few of our teachers went to school here. It wasn’t a decision that was taken lightly. We had the support of the NCSE, support and funding from the Department of Education because what we are doing is in line with Government policy. 

"We are trying to create a fully inclusive school. This is happening nationwide, and we don’t want to be left behind. It is very exciting,” he added.

The principal said going co-educational will also enable them to provide more subjects for the students. “We now have funding from the Department of Education to extra subjects such as woodwork, technical graphics, and engineering. We now can offer physics, chemistry, and technical subjects because we don’t believe girls and boys should be pigeonholed into just having a limited choice. They should have the opportunity to study a wide range of subjects.

“There are also facilities to go with the investment from the Department. It is something very valuable for this community. Another important thing that is happening is we are rebranding our school. We are updating our mission statement to be more relevant to the times we live in. In September 2023, there will be a new name for the school. It is a new era,” he added.

Cork school to press ahead with co-ed plans after 'significant opposition' halts merger

According to the statement issued by the patron of North Presentation Secondary School on Friday, there was a "robust and facilitated period of consultation", including 31 formal meetings conducted by an independent facilitator with boards of management, staff, students, parents, and guardians. Picture via Twitter

North Presentation Secondary School in Cork city is to press ahead and become co-educational after a planned merger between the school and St Vincent’s was called off this week.

From next September, the school in Farranree will welcome both girls and boys while expanding its curricular and non-curricular provision. 

On Thursday, the Religious Sisters of Charity, the patron of St Vincent’s, confirmed a planned merger between the two schools on the north side of Cork city from next year would no longer proceed following “significant opposition” .

In a statement issued on Friday, CEIST, the patron of North Presentation, said it was with “disappointment” that it learned of the decision of the Religious Sisters of Charity to withdraw from the amalgamation process “at this very late stage.”

“Over the last few weeks, a great deal of misleading and false information has been put into the public domain,” it added.

“This has caused immense hurt and upset to the North Presentation School community.” CEIST refrained from commenting to date out of respect for the process, it added.

“The board of management, senior leadership, students, and parents have conducted themselves in a professional, dignified and respectful manner for which we commend them.”

“At this stage, we believe that it is imperative that the record is set straight and that the voices of CEIST and that of Presentation Secondary School are heard.”

There had been strong objections to the planned move locally, with students from St Vincent’s telling the Irish Examiner they had been left "heartbroken" and "completely blindsided”.

Parents had also expressed concerns regarding the move to co-education, the proposed timescale of the amalgamation, and the facilities, particularly for students in the Lir Hub autism centre. 

This week, each of the four TDs from Cork North Central called on Norma Foley, the Minister for Education, in the Dáil to pause the amalgamation. Taoiseach Micheál Martin also called for a “full and comprehensive consultation” on the plans. The Department of Education had approved the amalgamation of the schools in October. 

According to the statement issued by CEIST on Friday, there was a "robust and facilitated period of consultation", including 31 formal meetings conducted by an independent facilitator with boards of management, staff, students, parents, and guardians. 

"In addition, the parents and guardians of students who currently attend the 14Catholic Primary schools in the catchment area were included in the process." 

"In the course of the consultation process, both patrons and school partners recognised that students deserve an education service with excellent facilities and high standards of teaching and learning. The schools clearly saw their mission as ensuring the provision of an education to all the students of the area, irrespective of their background or needs. 

"The school community looks forward to welcoming both girls and boys and a newly expanded curriculum including construction studies/engineering, technical graphics, design, and communication graphics. We are extremely grateful to the Department of Education for its continued support as we begin this thrilling and progressive journey."

• Why Choose Nano Nagle College?
• Applying To Nano Nagle College

Nano Nagle College has evolved from North Presentation Secondary School. The school was founded by the Presentation Sisters who in turn were founded by Nano Nagle.

Nano Nagle was born in Ballygriffin, Co. Cork in 1718 during the Penal Law Times. She received her early education in the local ‘Hedge School’ and later was sent to France to continue her education.

On her return to Cork in 1747, she was shocked by poverty and the need for education among the poor of Cork. Nano began her first school in Cove Street in 1754.

News of her school spread to the northside. Nano rented a hut on Philpott Curran Lane, off Shandon Street. Out of this came North Presentation Primary School which opened in 1813 on Gerald Griffin Street.

North Pres opened a ‘Secondary Top’ in Gerald Griffin Street which, in time, with the advent of free education became a full secondary school. The secondary school grew in numbers and a new building was required.

North Pres once again evolved and a green field site in Farranree was developed. The new school opened on 21st November 1969, with a procession of students and Presentation Sisters from Gerald Griffin Street to the new school in Farranree.

The official opening was in 1970. The school continued to grow in numbers and, although unsuitable, the old school in Gerald Griffin Street was reopened to cater for this. Both schools operated in tandem with each other.

As the student population grew, an extension was built onto the Farranree school. This opened in 1986.

In 2023, North Presentation Secondary School became known as Nano Nagle College, a co-educational school with new T4 subjects and new ASD classes.

Following in the footsteps of Nano we continue to respond to the changing needs of our community.

Nano Nagle Place We recently had the opportunity to bring the story of Nano Nagle alive for our 1st Yr and 5th students by taking them on a visit to Nano Nagle Place. The experience describes life in 18th century Cork before going on to explore the story of how Nano Nagle worked tirelessly to help and educate the poor and disadvantaged of the city. The students and teachers then interactively discovered how the order she founded, the Presentation Sisters, has travelled across the globe to continue her work. Thanks to Ms. Ryan for organising such an enjoyable trip and to Ms. Browne, Ms. Lawless, Ms. Hennessy and Ms. O' Sullivan for accompanying the students. We are lucky to have this wonderful tribute to such an inspirational person on our doorstep.
