The Patrician Secondary School in Newbridge, County Kildare was founded on 26th August 1958 by the Patrician Brothers in Charlotte House, Station Road. It is now situated on its own grounds, opposite St Conleth's Parish Church. It is an all boys secondary school noted for its high standards of education, turning out quite a high number of successful students in the creative arts, sciences and sports respectively.
The school has recently built a new state of the art wing in the last ten years incorporating new science labs, a music room, library, arts studio and woodwork studio also. Competition to be accepted into the school is also notably high.
Another extension was built recently to add more classrooms to the school to cope with the high amount of applications for places in the school.
