The school was opened in its current location in 1960, having previously been located in Kinsale Road and subsequently in Sawmill Street.

It was designated the Cork School of Culture during Cork's tenure of the title of the European Capital of Culture in 2005.

Many well-known Irish names have attended the school, such as Mícheál Martin, the current Irish Minister for Health, and Dan Boyle, another member of the Dáil (the Irish Parliament).
