Limerick school ‘victimised because of success’

A CO Limerick school hailed by computer mogul Michael Dell as one of the best of its kind in the world is being victimised because of its success, angry parents claimed yesterday.

Coláiste Chiarain in Croom is an all-laptop school where the students do all their work on computer.

Its success has seen student numbers spiral from 86 in 1999 to a current enrolment of around 700.
