Located at the foot of Mount Errigal in the breathtaking surroundings of North West Donegal, Coláiste an Phiarsaigh (founded in 1988) provides the ideal Gaeltacht course for both secondary and third level students. The Coláiste founders, Cáit and Seán Mac Suibhne, both native Irish speakers, who have taught the Irish language in secondary schools for many years , have a proven track record in the teaching and delivery of the Irish language curriculum. A rigourous selection process ensures that the Coláiste’s teachers are of the highest standards and are passionate about the Irish language and culture. The student numbers are purposely small to maximise the attention given to each individual, ensuring they are given the best opportunity to learn and develop confidence in the Irish language.
