Education Authority

Education Authority

The Education Authority was established on 1 April 2015 and since then we have been transforming the structures and functions bringing together the five former Education and Library Boards to create a single organisation. The Education Authority is one of the largest educational bodies in the United Kingdom and a major employer in Northern Ireland.

EA is responsible for ensuring that efficient and effective nursery, primary and secondary education services are available to meet the needs of children and young people, and support for the provision of efficient and effective youth services.

We help with all aspects of a child's journey through education from admission to pre-school, getting transport to school,  changing schools, to moving through primary and post-primary. We are also here to help with newcomer issues, special educational needs  and provide support whenever parents and children need it.
