Our Mission on Our Lady Of Fatima School is to provide a happy and secure learning environment where we value and develop the whole person to their full potential and celebrate each students uniqueness and personal qualities.

"As the national awarding body for further education and training in Ireland, the Further Education and Training Awards Council (FETAC) gives people the opportunity to gain recognition for learning in education or training centers, in the work place and in the community"

FETAC's functions include:

• Making and promoting awards

• Validating programmes

• Monitoring and ensuring

• The quality of programmes determining standards

Our Lady of Fatima envisages following this criteria as we embark on presenting FETAC level 3 in our school.
