Welcome to Scoil Mhuire Buncrana

I am delighted to welcome you to the website of Scoil Mhuire, Buncrana, a vibrant co-educational Catholic secondary school under the trusteeship of CEIST (Catholic Education an Irish Schools Trust). Rooted in the rich tradition of Mercy education and inspired by the vision of Catherine McAuley, we are committed to nurturing every student — academically, personally, and spiritually.

I am proud of our long-standing tradition of academic excellence in Scoil Mhuire, with students consistently achieving at the highest levels in the State Examinations and progressing to a wide range of further education and career pathways. Just as importantly, I take great pride in the diverse range of extra-curricular and co-curricular opportunities we provide. From sport and music to drama and leadership, we encourage all students to get involved and make the most of their time here.

Whether you are a prospective student, parent, or member of our wider community, I invite you to explore our website to get a real sense of the energy, warmth, and spirit that define us in Scoil Mhuire.

Fáilte romhaibh go léir.

Principal Ms. Evelyn McLoughlin
