Peter McVerry Trust

In 2019, Peter McVerry Trust took on the management of two pre-exisiting Learning Centres in Dublin – PMVT Learning Centre – Carline in Lucan and PMVT Learning Centre – CMS in the south inner city.

PMVT Learning Centres work with young people who cannot access mainstream education due to a number of circumstances, for example: need for further learning support, educational, emotional, social or behavioural challenges.

We aim to provide young people with a high-quality education program which meets the students’ individual learning needs and maximises their intrinsic abilities to engage in continued learning. Furthermore, we aim to enable young people to recognise the positive impact education has on their future development.

In September 2020, PMVT Learning Centres welcomed 38 students in the Junior Certificate programme.

PMVT Learning Centres

PMVT Learning Centres are founded on an ethos of non-judgemental support, empowerment and equality. The program follows a person-centred approach with our students ensuring they experience positive educational support, respect, dignity and autonomy.

We adopt a holistic approach to learning and education with an aim to create hope and stability by providing a safe and meaningful learning environment.

The vision of PMVT Learning Centres is one where all students prosper, have access to the education system, have further personal success and can claim a genuine stake in society.
