Skilly is delighted to announce its partnership with Gairmscoil Mhic Diarmada, under the patronage of Donegal ETB, to deliver its market-leading SPHE/Well-being measurement and tracking solution.

As a Gaeltacht DEIS school, they are currently enabled to provide our educational programmes in both Irish and English.

Commenting on the announcement, Derval Newman, Principal of the School, said :

Skilly has created an innovative solution for students, teachers, and the school to track our students' engagement in developing the skills that underpin their development and Well-Being. Students engage in self-reflective learning practices aligned with the curriculum, which gives us essential data on their progress and the impact of targeted interventions.

We are excited to introduce this pilot programme to our community. It will focus on key skills incorporated into our SPHE and Wellbeing programmes.

Commenting on the announcement, Shane Maguire, CEO of Skilly, said,

"It is excellent for Skilly to partner with a small island school. We want Skilly to support all students in developing soft skills regardless of location and school size.

"Our software engages students through reflective activities linked to the curriculum learning pillars, which are measured and tracked to give teachers a simple way to deliver the programmes and observe the impact.

We look forward to collaborating with Gairmscoil Mhic Diarmada and the teaching team over the coming year to support the enhanced development of their students' Well-being and key life skills.
