Midleton CBS Secondary School is a Catholic secondary school for boys, located in Midleton, County Cork, Ireland. Midleton CBS was founded by the Congregation of Christian Brothers in 1867.[1]

History

[edit]

The Christian Brothers arrived in Midleton in 1867 at the request of the parish priest who recognized the need of a dedicated school to educate the town's Roman Catholic male youth, at a time when the Church of Ireland's Midleton College was fast expanding. The local community provided donations for the cost of the construction, and the school opened on 3 April 1867, with over 300 pupils joining in its first week.[2] The last of the Christian Brothers left the school in 2003, with the monastery and old school building being taken over by the Diocese of Cloyne for parish use.[3]

The school buildings were massively extended in the 2010s, in a project which cost €12.6 million.[4]

Curriculum

[edit]

The school offers both the Junior and Leaving Certificate cycles. The curriculum teaches first years: Religion; IrishasL2; EnglishasL1; Mathematics; FrenchasL2; GermanasL2; Science; Business Studies; History; Geography; CSPE; SPHE; Woodwork; Technical Graphics; Art; Music; Technology and Physical Education. In second year, the students may choose to drop one of the (L2) foreign languages.

After completing the Junior Certificate, the school requires students to complete a mandatory Transition Year. In 5th year, students begin the Leaving Cert cycle. IrishasL2, English L1 and Mathematics are compulsory.[5]

[edit]

The school has a notable history in hurling, especially the Dr. Harty Cup which has been won a total of 4 times by the school.[6][failed verification] Midleton CBS also have a successful athletics set up and have won All-Ireland's in a number of athletic events.[7][failed verification]
