Coláiste Íde

Taking the decision to attend a boarding school is an important one. Boarding school life offers many advantages to today’s teenagers. In Coláiste Íde we offer a safe and encouraging learning environment for girls to develop their academic abilities and individual talents in an idyllic rural setting. The boarding experience offers stimulation and security, promotes independence, life-long friendships and a very efficient use of time.

Excellent pastoral care of students in a boarding school environment is vital. As a staff we are committed to providing for the moral education and personal development of the students. The health of students is paramount and a qualified nurse is on duty at the school every night and a student support team is on-hand 24-hours a day to deal with issues that may arise – small or large. As a Catholic boarding school we are committed to an educational programme which is Christian in outlook.

Our aim as a staff is to prepare our students to play their role in society as responsible, caring citizens. We want your daughter to leave Coláiste Íde with a sense of purpose and with the confidence to pursue her ambitions. Coláiste Íde students are happy, confident girls; well prepared and well qualified for the future.
