Welcome to Saplings

A young Sapling properly nurtured can grow into a strong tree.

Saplings Ltd. is an independent, not for profit, public interest Company with charity status (CHY14453).

Established originally through the energy and commitment of a small group of parents and professionals in the Kildare area, Saplings now has 5 schools located in Kill, Rathfarnham, Carlow, Goresbridge and Mullingar and operates as a Patron body to these schools.

The Saplings Schools are co-educational specialist schools, providing quality education for pupils with autism and complex needs. Each school offers a range of child-centred, autism specific education which draws on a range of evidence based interventions.
