School Staff
The school staff is currently comprised of the principal, 11 teachers and 25.5 SNA’s, 2 Nurses, 2 secretaries, 14 Bus Escorts, 1 Cook, 1 Housemother and 1 cleaner. One of the teachers also holds the position of Deputy Principal. The teachers, SNA’s, Secretaries, bus escorts and the cleaner are employees of the Board of Management (BOM) and salaries are paid by the Department of Education and Skills (DES). The duties of the teachers and SNA’s are drawn up by the BOM in line with DES guidelines.
The Nurses who work in the school are employees of St. Michael’s House. Clinicians and therapists who work with the students in the school are also employed by St. Michael’s House. Staff who work at St. Michael’s House Grosvenor School also play an important part in supporting the smooth running of the school, e.g., the kitchen, laundry and maintenance staff.
On School Transport, the Bus Drivers are contracted through Bus Eireann, on behalf of the Department of Education and Skills and are therefore not employees of the school.
John Fitzpatrick is our School Principal and John Owen is the School Deputy Principal.
