  • Gaeilge: Is trí mhéan na Gaeilge a déantar an chumarsáid agus an teagasc i Scoil Santain. Ní dhéantar faillí ar an mBéarla áfach agus ar an gcaoi sin bíonn na daltaí dhá theangach ar fhágáil na scoile dóibh.  Irish is used as the medium of instruction in Scoil Santain. The children become billingual, thus adding an extra dimension to their education.
