Presentation Secondary School, Wexford operates under the trusteeship of C.E.I.S.T. – Catholic Education-an Irish Schools Trust.
C.E.I.S.T. is the collaborative trustee body for the voluntary secondary school of the congregation of the Presentation Sisters, Christian Retreat Sisters, Sisters of Mercy, Missionaries of the Sacred Heart and Daughters of Charity.
C.E.I.S.T. is committed to honouring this rich heritage, promoting inclusion, hospitality, excellence and compassion in a teaching and learning environment inspired by the Gospel and by the unique wisdom of its respective Founders.
C.E.I.S.T. aims, in a spirit of collaboration, to continually invite its members to reach their potential, in the context of a school faith community, which seeks to consciously embody a true expression of the Reign of God as announced by Jesus Christ.
C.E.I.S.T. is committed to building school faith communities where good personal relationships are fostered, where the staff are supported and facilitated in their vital role within the school.
C.E.I.S.T. faces unprecedented challenges today as it attempts to anticipate, define and meet the evolving needs of young people in the Third Millennium.
C.E.I.S.T. schools endeavour to work closely with members of other Christian traditions in a spirit of ecumenical dialogue, emphasising what is held in common while valuing their own unique Catholic identity and Church community.
