We are inspected annually by the Care Commission and intermittently by the H.M.Inspectorate of Schools.

Croileagan Bhreascleit aims to:
- Have a happy, secure and easily managed playroom.

- Help the children to learn through play in the five key curriculum areas.
- Help the children to become independent, confident and self-disciplined.
