The Edmund Rice Schools Trust (NI) is the trustee body responsible for nine schools in N. Ireland.  These schools were formerly under the Trusteeship of the Christian Brothers. The Trust was launched on 2nd February 2009 and is based in the Westcourt Centre, Barrack St., Belfast.

The main object of the Company is to ensure and foster the advancement of education and to further the aims and purposes of Catholic education in the Edmund Rice tradition in colleges and schools in the North owned or operated by the Company in accordance with the religious and education philosophy of the Company as stated in the Edmund Rice School Trust Charter.

The characteristic spirit of the Trust and of our schools is set out in the Edmund Rice Schools Trust Charter. The Charter underpins and informs the work of the Trust office which is delivered in three interrelated areas: Ethos, Governance and Finance and Property. Tá cóipeanna den Cháirt ar fáil as Gaeilge ach scáirt ar Oifig an Iontaobhais.

The Edmund Rice Schools Trust gives everyone involved in running the nine  schools the opportunity to share ideas and pursue best practice together and so give practical expression to the Edmund Rice Schools Trust Charter.

Is é an aidhm againne comhoibriú a chothú agus a fhorbairt i measc lucht leanúna Éamainn Rís, ní amháin sa tír seo ach ar fud na cruinne. Cuirimid fáilte roimh dhuine ar bith a dtig leis cuidiú linn an aidhm seo a chur chun cinn.
