Established in 1696, Midleton College is a coeducational boarding and day secondary school with a Church of Ireland ethos
Since then, Midleton College has established and maintained a tradition of high academic achievement, reinforced by recent excellent state examination results; well ahead of the national average in all subject areas.
Small class sizes allow for the careful nurturing of the individual within the college community and large emphasis is placed on inclusive and holistic education.
The aim of the college curriculum is to offer a broad curriculum that supports the academic and personal development of each pupil allowing them to reach their full potential. The school offers 22 subjects for Leaving Certificate including 3 languages, Politics & Society, Computer Science, Physical Education and Design & Communication Graphics.
The college includes a modern sand-dressed astroturf pitch, swimming pool, rugby pitches and dining hall. The latest addition to the campus is the recently completed Trevor West Sportshall, specially designed for basketball, badminton, hockey and other indoor sports. The newly refurbished boarding houses offer students a home away from home.
Extracurricular activities are strongly promoted within the school to ensure each student finds a niche that they can enjoy. These diverse activities include clubs such as art club, science club, drama club and sports including rugby, hockey, soccer and swimming.
Music is an important part of the school; all first years receive music lessons and college choir and a chamber orchestra are central to the school.
