From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A multidenominational school is a relatively new type of primary school in Ireland. They often try to move away from traditional models based around religion, which are common in Ireland, typically these are Roman Catholic and to a lesser extent Church of Ireland schools.
Multidenominational schools try to promote pluralism and multiculturalism.
