Below are the figures for the school in question with regard to enrolment at Second level and in PLCs. There is no VTOS programme provided in the school. However if students for the VTOS programme available in another centre in town require access to specific modules available in the school, this access is facilitated.

There are Adult Education evening classes provided and approximately 200 adults participate in these classes. The trend in enrolment has been steady between 2003/04 and 2004/05 with a rise in first year enrolment in 2005/06 and a subsequent drop in 2006/07.

PLC enrolment after dropping 2002/03 has remained consistent from 2003/04 up to and including the current school year with 64 participants.
