In 1902, a Technical School for boys was opened by the Secretary of the Department of Education and Technical Instruction. The Old Vocational School on Northgate Street moved to the Retreat Road site in 1974, when Athlone Community College was built to cater for 500 students.[1]
In 2008, the Department of Education and Science gave approval for the building of a new school in place of the existing building.[2] The school was completed in 2014 and opened by the then Taoiseach Enda Kenny in 2017.[3]

The school offers both the Junior and Leaving Certificate cycles, as well as Transition Year.[4][5]
