Students choose The Dublin Academy of Education for one reason:
to maximise their academic potential in the Leaving Cert exams.
Our Open Evenings are the ideal way for 4th, 5th, and 6th Year families to learn about how the school works and explore our unique learning environment.
On the night, you'll hear from our Principal, Teachers, Admissions Director and our Guidance Counsellor about how we navigate the CAO and Leaving Cert pressure, as well as hear from current students on what daily life is like at The Academy.
Moving schools can be a significant commitment for any family. Parents often tell us their only regret is not making the move sooner. In this video, hear from a parent who watched his children transform from stressed and overwhelmed to confident and in control and maximised their Leaving Cert results.
Romy explains how The Academy’s unique environment allowed her to learn without the pressure she felt in her previous school. Hear how expert teachers simplified complex topics, saving her hours of study time, and how she walked into her exams feeling motivated, prepared, and surprisingly relaxed, as well as having the most fun year of her life.
Ella spent two years at The Academy and says moving was "100% worth it." Beyond just achieving the grades she needed, she credits the school with building her confidence and independence. Watch her story to see how the "young adult" atmosphere doesn't just prepare you for the Leaving Cert—it prepares you for university, while helping you make lifelong friends along the way.
