* Gaelscoil
An bhunaidhm atá ag Gaelscoil an Ghoirt Álainn ná oideachas a chur ar fail do na páistí atá faoina cúram. Léiriú ar an tábhacht a bhaineann lenár bhféiniúlacht chultúrtha uathúil laistigh de chomhthéacs leathan na hEorpa is ea an Ghaeilge a bheith mar phriomh-mheán cumarsáide.
* Ilchreidmheach
Tá an scoil oscailte do dhaltaí is cuma cén creideamh a mbaineann siad leis nó mura mbaineann siad le creideamh ar bith agus beidh an meas céanna ar chúlra sóisialta, cultúrtha agus creidmheach an uile dhalta. Déanann ar scoil idirdhealú idir oideachas morálta/creidimh agus oideachas sainchreidheach. Déantar an chéad cheann díobh sin a shóláthar tríd an gcroí-churaclam de theasc creidimh a mhúintear in aghaidh an lae sa seomra ranga. Déanann an scoil éascaíocht don dara ceann ach is iad na tuismitheoirí a eagraíonn é.
* Comhoideachas
Tá an scoil oscailte do chailíní agus do bhuachaillí ar bhonn cothrom. Déantar gach iarracht ar bhuachaillí agus chailínú a meascadh go gníomhach agus seachnaítear gnéas-steiréitíopacht.

Is é an cur chuige leanbhlárnach an modh oideachias a chleachtann an scoil.
* Reáchtáil ar Bhonn Daonlathach
Tá an scoil á reáchtail ar bhonn daonlathach agus tuismitheoirí rannpháirteach go gníomhach i saol na scoil ó lá go la, ag cur proidisiúnta na múinteoirí san áireamh, ar ndóigh.

PRINCIPLES OF THE GAELSCOIL
Gaelscoil an Ghoirt Álainn is a multi-denominational Gaelscoil. The school is part of the Department of Education National School system and runs in accordance with all Department of Education rules and regulations. It is affiliated to Educate Together and Gaelscoileanna. It is located on Murmont Avenue, Mayfield, Cork.
Gaelscoil An Ghoirt Álainn was founded in 1993 by a group of parents seeking an education for their children which fostered both their cultural and moral identity.
Gaelscoil An Ghoirt Álainn is founded on the following principles :
* Gaelscoil
The fundamental aim of Gaelscoil An Ghoirt Álainn is the education of the children in its care. The fact that the Irish language is the primary means of communication reflects the importance placed on our unique cultural identity within the broader European context.
* Multi-denominational
The school is open to children of all religions and none and the social, cultural and religious background of each child is equally respected. The school draws a distinction between moral/religious education and denominational instruction. The former is provided through a religious education core curriculum taught daily in the classroom. The latter is facilitated by the school but organised and paid for by parents.
* Co – educational
The school is open to girls and boys on an equal basis. Every effort is made to ensure that boys and girls are actively integrated and sexual stereotyping is avoided.
* Child Centred
The school is child centred in its approach to education.
* Democratically Run
The school is democratically run with active participation by parents in the daily life of the school, with due regard however, for the professional role of the teachers.
THE ORGANISATION AND RUNNING OF THE SCHOOL
The Patron
The patron of the Gaelscoil is Foras Pátrúnachta na Scoileanna Lánghaeilge.
The Board of Management
Like all National Schools, the school has a Board of Management which is responsible for the day to day running of the school and its finances. The Board has members representing the Patron, the teachers , the parents and the wider community.
The Parents Association
The Parents Association is a consultative body to the Board of Management. It is a forum for discussion on matters that affect the education of the children. It also organises activities of benefit to the children and /or parents of the school.
Funding
The Department of Education pays the teachers and pays a capitation for each pupil, which goes towards heat light etc. The Gaelscoil an Ghoirt Álainn Board of Management pays the rent and is responsible for capital expenditure and all other running expenses of the school. This necessitates a considerable amount of fund-raising, in which all parents may participate. In common with Boards of Management of most national Schools it requests a voluntary contribution from parents towards its funds.
