History
Sutton Park School was founded in 1957 as one of the first multi-denominational schools in Ireland.
One of the founders was Rosaleen Mills who was an Irish activist and educator. She served here as vice-principal for some years.[1]
The original school building is a late Georgian House known as St Fintan's House whose previous owners had sold it on. Captain John King is recorded as living at the house from 1849-53.[2]
Since 2016, it no longer offers Boarding facilities. Sutton Park is an international day school, with students from ages 4 to 19 attending from 22 countries. It is accredited by the Council of International Schools.[3]
