Limerick Tutorial College is a family-run college that caters for full-time 5th Year, 6th Year and Repeat Leaving Certificate students of all levels  From Strength to Strength


Limerick Tutorial College (LTC), initially called Limerick Tutorial Centre, was established in 1985. At first, its role was very specific. In its first year, it provided tutoring for Leaving Certificate students who were having difficulties with certain subjects. However, this tutoring gradually extended to 5th Year students, Junior Certificate students, First and second Years and even Primary School pupils.

Due to the success of students who attended in the first few years, the College decided to run a specialised One Year Full-time Leaving Certificate Course, starting in September 1988. This course was primarily for students who wanted to repeat their Leaving Cert in order to get higher points. In its first year, over 80% of students raised their results by at least two grades per subject.

In the following years, the numbers attending the College grew substantially. By 1990, many local parents were eager for the College to do even more. So in September of that year, it commenced a fully fledged 6th Year Course. Three years later, after further parental demand, a Fifth Year Course was added. In effect, the College was now running a Full-time Two Year Leaving Cert Course.

Perhaps the greatest vote of confidence the College has ever received it the fact that a huge number of second and third family members have attended after witnessing the progress of the first family member. By 2002, 370 families had sent a second member of their family to LTC. In the same year, Limerick Tutorial centre became Limerick Tutorial College. By then, the constant flow of good results achieved by its students over a decade and a half had further increased its popularity: 330 students attended in 2002.
