Archival History Deposited in the Cork Archives Institute in 1990.

Biographical / Administrative History

Cork District Model National School / Cork Model School/Modh Scoil Chorcaí, opened on 11 September 1865. The school was housed in a purpose built building at Angelsea Street, designed by Board of Public Works architects James H. Owen (b1822 – d1891) and Enoch Trevor Owen (b c.1833 – d.1881). The building was separated into male, female and infants divisions, as well as housing a maritime school. The School closed in 1990 and the building is now in use as the District Court. Model Schools were teacher-training schools under the auspices of the Commissioners of the Board of National Education, the administrative body of the national system, which was established in 1831. A central model school in Dublin was established in 1833/4. From 1845 onwards, 25 district model schools were established, including Cork Model School. Each year a number of male and female ‘ pupil teachers ’ were trained and housed at the school.

The model schools were managed by the local district inspector and their teachers were directly

appointed by the Board of National Education. The Royal Commission on Education (1868-1870) deemed that the model schools were an overly expensive method of teacher training and their use for this purpose ceased from about 1883 onwards, the model schools thereafter continuing to function as ordinary national schools. Following national independence in 1922, National Education Board functions were taken over by the Department of Education. The model schools admitted children of all denominations and social classes. However, in 1863, Catholic Church leaders banned Catholic pupils from attending, because of dissatisfaction with the religious instruction provided. Thus many model schools became Protestant in ethos, while in later years a number of others, including Cork, became Irish language schools (scoileanna lán ghaelige/gael scoileanna), teaching predominantly Catholic pupils. Notably, the registers and roll books record the attendance of a small number of pupils of the Jewish faith, whose families arrived in Cork, mainly in the 1890-1910 period. Past pupils at the school include former Lord Mayors Gerald Goldberg and Peter Barry.
