Ráiteas Misin
Tá sé mar aidhm ag an scoil oideachas a chur ar fáil mar chuid den phlean saoil iomlán, ionas go mbeadh ár ndaltaí in ann fás agus forbairt, a gcumas a shroichint leis an meon ceart maidir le foghlaim, obair, fírinne, áilleacht, oidhreacht, maitheas, dínit, daoine eile, iad féin agus an saol go ginearálta.
Aidhm na Scoile:
Tá sé mar aidhm ag an scoil an deis is fearr a thabhairt do dhaltaí oiliúint agus forbairt den scoth a fháil agus an coibhneas agus an chothromaíocht cheart a chruthú idir chaighdeán na hoibre agus an taitneamh a bhaintear as an saol ar scoil.
An Ghaeilge:
Is í an Ghaeilge amháin teanga cumarsáide na scoile seo. Ba chóir go bhfuil múinteoirí agus daltaí i gcónaí feasach í a úsáid agus a chur chun cinn i ngach cuid den saol scoile, ar scoil agus ag gach imeacht scoile.

- Cúram
- Comhionannas
- Pobal
- Meas
Cúram: I nGaelcholáiste Cheatharlach, baineann cúram le leas, folláine agus sábháilteacht gach ball de phobal na scoile. Léirítear é i gcaidrimh bríocha, an ceangail idir gach ball, ionbhá, in éineacht le tacaíocht agus dlúthpháirtíocht.
Comhionannas: I nGaelcholáiste Cheatharlach, baineann comhionannas le caitheamh go cothrom le gach ball de phobal na scoile agus éagsúlacht na mball seo a aithint agus a cheiliúradh.

Pobal: I nGaelcholáiste Cheatharlach, cuimsíonn an pobal daltaí, baill foirne, tuismitheoirí agus an pobal áitiúil.

Meas: I nGaelcholáiste Cheatharlach, baineann meas le meas a bheith againn ar dhínit, cearta, fhéiniúlacht agus chúlra gach ball de phobal na scoile.
