OUR SCHOOL
Bandon Grammar School has developed many fine traditions in almost four centuries of educating young people now combined in a modern spacious campus set in beautiful West Cork. Our 700 pupils and more than 100 staff form a happy and caring community dedicated to excellence in all we do. We are a fee paying co-educational boarding and day school with a valued link with the Church of Ireland. Our growing pupil body is enhanced with many international students from Irish families living abroad and from countries such as Spain, Germany, Vietnam, South Korea, Hong Kong and Australia.
The teachers are hugely patient and friendly, which was a great help to me. They were always willing to help in any way that they could. I found that I could always also rely on my classmates. They are used to receiving new people every year, so they were also an incredible source of help. The school has many sporting facilities and I spent most afternoons playing soccer, tennis or basketball. This was very enjoyable, especially after being in classes all day!
Our first memory of the school was from the induction day when Mr.Coombes talked about the academic development for all the students, emphasising that they would all be encouraged and assisted to reach their full potential. Over the years this became very evident as we watched our son develop academically with confidence, given the support and encouragement when needed.
Definitivamente, es la mejor experiencia que hemos vivido hasta ahora y la repitiéramos mil veces más. (definitely the best experience we have had so far in our lives until now and we would repeat it a 1000 times more)
