We were honoured to have past pupil and Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth Roderic O’Gorman TD present The King’s Hospital School IQM Awards on May 30th. A big thank you to Joe McCann and Eilish McCann from IQM for coming to KH to present the awards and speaking to our students in chapel. This was a historic day for KH as we are the first school in the republic of Ireland to receive an Inclusive School Award with Centre of Excellence status. This accolade is a testament to the school’s outstanding dedication to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment for all its students and the wider school community.

This monumental task was largely undertaken by Ms Daly, Claire Elmes Kirby, Mr. Ua Bruadair, and Headmaster Mark Ronan without them none of this would have been possible. Special mention to Eloise and Rachel for helping with today’s events and helping Minister O’Gorman cut the cake! Well, done to everyone involved in this momentous occasion.
