Project Update – St. Flannan's College, Ennis

Rogerson Reddan Managing Delivery of Landmark School Project at St. Flannan’s College, Ennis

The development of this major new school building at St. Flannan’s College in Ennis, County Clare is notable not only for its scale but also for its use of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC)—most prominently, large-scale timber frame modular construction. This project, commissioned by the Department of Education and Youth, is set to become the largest school of it’s kind in Munster.

Set on an accelerated delivery programme, the project is being developed at pace to ensure that students and staff at St. Flannan’s College benefit from advanced facilities as soon as possible. Included in the new accommodation are purpose-built facilities for students with Special Educational Needs (SEN), reflecting a strong commitment to inclusivity and accessibility.

At the core of the project is the use of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), including large-scale timber frame modular construction. This approach supports rapid progress on site while maintaining a high standard of quality, efficiency, and environmental sustainability.

To illustrate the vision for the completed school, Healy Partners Architects have produced an outstanding graphic representation of the finished development. The visual captures the scale, design quality, and educational ambition of the project, and provides a compelling glimpse into the future learning environment.

We are proud to support this landmark project, which combines innovation, efficiency, and educational impact, and reflects the best of modern construction and collaboration in Ireland’s school building programme.
