Controversy

The school was accused of discrimination in 2011 when a traveller was refused entry into the school due to the admissions policy which gave preference to students who had relations as past pupils.

The case went as far as the Supreme Court of Ireland where they "ruled the evidence and materials put before the Circuit Court and the Equality Tribunal was insufficient to enable it make a proper assessment whether John was particularly disadvantaged due to the fact neither his father nor another sibling had attended the school."
