Our centres / Tullamore

A modern school in the heart of Tullamore

Lakeland’s Tullamore school opened in 2023. It has four classrooms and capacity for approximately 60 students across the whole centre. This refers to the facilities as a whole, not the number of students in each class.

Its town-centre location connects learning with the surrounding community: streets, shops and everyday encounters all become part of discovering Ireland. It suits students looking to study English in a smaller Irish town, with local services and a friendly atmosphere.

Lakeland organises programmes from Ireland and helps you choose a stay that suits the student’s or group’s age, dates and goals. We begin by understanding the experience you want and explaining the available options.

Four classrooms for learning, participation and confidence

The centre has boards, multimedia materials, television and Wi-Fi, as well as a teachers’ room and kitchen. Lessons can combine explanations, exercises and opportunities to participate, supporting different ways of working with English.

Practice becomes meaningful when students feel ready to take part: asking a question, sharing an idea or talking with classmates. Classroom resources support this process and help connect English with everyday situations.

The photographs on this page show the classrooms, reception and details of the centre, helping you get to know the setting before arranging a stay.

Boarding schools in Ireland combine education and accommodation at the selected school. Lakeland provides guidance on partner schools and entry requirements. The stay takes place at the boarding school, not at the Tullamore language centre.

Tullamore: get to know everyday Ireland

Tullamore is in County Offaly, in the Midlands. Its central Irish location and everyday town life make it an interesting base for discovering the country while learning English.

Beyond the best-known visitor attractions, contact with the language happens in simple situations: asking for something in a shop, finding your way around town or chatting during an activity. Using English for a real purpose connects classroom learning with daily life.

Our central location combines convenience with contact with the local community. For families and schools, it offers a modern learning centre in an Irish town with its own character.

English beyond the classroom

Learning continues after lessons. Shared activities, sport and time together create opportunities to listen and speak English beyond classroom exercises.

Depending on the stay, the proposal may include cultural or sporting activities and excursions to places such as Dublin, Galway, Birr or Clonmacnoise. Tullamore’s location offers possibilities for different outings, with the timetable and travel arrangements agreed for each programme.
