The Moat Primary School in Lisnaskea is actively working to promote a culture of trust and develop paths of reconciliation.

This is being carried out through education and the school is now to receive a grant from the Integrated Education Fund (IEF).

The allocation of the money is through the IEF's Promoting A Culture of Trust (PACT) grant programme.

Moat's project 'Broad Bandits School Radio' will run for one year and was awarded £5,000.

The school will work in partnership with St Mary's Newtownbutler, St John's in Dungannon, Pinkie St Peters, Scotland and Arvalee Primary School in Omagh.

The project aims to promote participation, understanding and new friendships between primary school children and staff who are from different religious backgrounds and cultures within Northern Ireland.

Dorothee Wagner, IEF Trustee and Chair of the Grants Sub Group, said the aim of the programme was to promote the development of skills and relationships that enable schools, pupils, staff, governors and the wider community to increase their understanding, acceptance and respect for political, cultural and religious differences.

"We worked closely with all the Education and Library Boards," said Ms Wagner, "to ensure that every school in Northern Ireland no matter what management type received information on this programme and we were delighted and encouraged by the number of applications that we received."
