School Staff
The school staff is currently comprised of the Principal, a Deputy Prinicpal, 11 teachers, 26 SNA’s, 2 Nurses, 2 secretaries, 15 Bus Escorts, 1 Cook, 1 caretaker, 1 cleaner and a part-time worker who helps with the daily tasks in the school (they are also a past pupil).
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.
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. implementing therapy programmes, assisting the students throughout the school day and supporting the students to achieve their IEP Goals.
Clinicians and therapists who work with the students in the school are employed by the HSE and are part of the CDNT 4. Most of students are with CDNT 4 but some students are with their home CDNT.
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
