HIGH SCHOOL IN IRELAND

Ireland, often referred to as “The Land of Saints and Scholars”, has a long and distinguished tradition in educational excellence which continues to the present day. In recent years Ireland has become an increasingly popular destination for overseas students. The cost of education in Ireland is relatively low, particularly in the private sector which is substantially cheaper than in many other English-speaking countries. In addition, the Irish Leaving Certificate, equivalent to the British A-Level, is internationally recognised for entry to universities worldwide. Read more

State schools in Ireland

State schools

 in Ireland can welcome overseas students from the EU and EEA. Some state schools on our programme were founded by the Irish government. These are usually called Vocational Schools or Community Colleges and they are all mixed gender. Others were founded by religious orders and may have originally been private schools, but they are now fully funded by the Irish government. These schools are called Voluntary Sector and are more likely to be single-gender. Read more.
