11/03/2024

Skilly is delighted to announce its partnership with Colaiste Ghobnait, under the patronage of GRETB, to deliver its market-leading SPHE/Well-being measurement and tracking solution.

Coláiste Ghobnait is a co-educational school on Inis Oírr under the patronage of the Galway and Roscommon Education and Training Board.

Commenting on the announcement, Brid Ni Dhonncha, 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 soft skills incorporated into our SPHE and Wellbeing programmes.

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

"It is great 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 Colaiste Ghabnait and the teaching team over the coming year to support the enhanced development of their students' Well-being and life skills.
