No letter for Scoil Colmcille
Ireland publishes no exam results school by school, and section 53 of the Education Act 1998 restricts comparing schools by them, so this school has no letter and nothing here ranks it. Its facts are the Department of Education’s; its inspection reports are linked below.
What the Department of Education does publish for Scoil Colmcille is on this page: its pupils each September since 2015/16, girls and boys, its patron and ethos, whether it teaches through Irish, whether it is in DEIS, and its inspection reports.
Newspapers print lists of how many of a school’s leavers go on to college. Those count destinations, not exam results, and depend on who a school takes in; we don’t use them.

Questions about Scoil Colmcille
Is Scoil Colmcille a good school?
We don’t grade it: Ireland publishes no exam results school by school, and section 53 of the Education Act 1998 restricts comparing them. Its inspection reports on gov.ie, a visit and a talk with the principal will tell you more than any table could.
How many pupils does Scoil Colmcille have?
264 pupils in 2025/26. That is +22% since 2019/20.
Does Scoil Colmcille teach through Irish?
No: Scoil Colmcille teaches in English, with Irish as a subject.
Who runs Scoil Colmcille?
Scoil Colmcille has a Catholic ethos. Its patron is Bishop of Cork & Ross.
How do pupils get a place at Scoil Colmcille?
Apply to the school directly. It publishes an admission policy and a yearly admission notice with its dates; if more children apply than it has places, it admits on the criteria in its policy.
Which schools of the same kind are near Scoil Colmcille?
The nearest are Cork Educate Together National School (0.4 km), St Vincents Convent N.S. (0.5 km) and S.N. Iosef Naofa (0.6 km).
