Sean Scoileanna
Sar ar cuireadh na scoileanna Náisiúnda ar bun bhiodh scoileanna scairte scoileanns fóidín nó gear scoileanna thart sa gceanntar seo. Manaigh mná riaghalta nó máighistirí scoile a bhiodh ag múineadh ionnta. Tíghthe déanta de fhóidíní nó cloche a bhí ionnta agus iad cumhdaighthe le tuighe. Is minic a bhiodh braon anuas ar na scoláirí agus iad ag foghluim. Comhnuigheadh na manaigh nó na mná riaghalta ins na mainistreacha agus ins na clochair ach téigheadh na máistreacha ó theach go teach. Cuireadh siad futha i dtighthe na bpáistí a bhiod ag teach tar scoil. Íocadh tuismightheóirí na bpáistí iad gach ráithe.
Bhí mainistir i Mhuigheo sa mbliadhan 668 A.D. agus thainic scoláirí ón Európ go dtí an scoil sin mar bhí troid ina dtír féin. Mar gheall ar an mead scoláire a tháinigh chuige tugadh Muigheo na Sacsan ar an áit.

Faoi an am seo chuir Naomh Cholmán a bhí i gceannas i Muigheo beirt mhana go Teach Chaoin agus cuireadh sgoil eile ar bun annseo. Bhí scoil ar bun i mBaile an Tobair agus deirtear gur annseo a h-oileadh Alfred The Great. Deireann cuid eile gur i Muigheo na Sacsan a h-oileadh é. Bhí sean scoil eile ar bun in Ahena.
