About Us

About Us banner

Ratoath College is a co-educational, multi-denominational Deed of Trust Community College founded in 2005 to cater for the educational needs of the parishes of Ratoath and Curraha under the joint trusteeship of the Louth and Meath Education and Training Board (LMETB) and the Roman Catholic Bishop of Meath, Thomas Deenihan.

The school endeavours to provide an education for all its students, one which aims to develop all aspects of the individual – aesthetic, creative, inquisitive, cultural, emotional, intellectual, moral, physical, political, religious, social and spiritual development, for personal and family life, for working-life, for living in the community and for leisure.

The Board of Management of Ratoath College together with LMETB manages the school.

The school has a population of more than 1100 students and a staff of over 100, including teachers, SNAs, secretaries, caretakers and ancillary staff members. Due to its size the school has 3 Deputy Principals.

The school is located in a state of the art building in Jamestown having moved there from its temporary home in Fairyhouse Racecourse in August 2007. To facilitate our growing population the Department of Education and Skills sanctioned an extension to our building which opened in August 2021.

The school aims to provide the best possible education service to all the students entrusted to our care. Working together, the Board, parents, staff and students, aim to continue to provide the excellent service that has been established and to improve the overall quality, so that our students benefit from the support and expertise available to them.

Senior Management Team: Mr.Meehan (Principal), Ms.Kelly (Deputy Principal), Mr.Connolly (Deputy Principal) and Mr.McCarthy (Deputy Principal)
