What are the best coding and AI classes in Munster?
Munster is the south of Ireland: Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Clare, Tipperary and Waterford, with 1,355,848 usually resident people at the 2022 census in 501,571 households. It holds three of the State's cities, and every Munster county and city has its own page with us, linked further down. Teaching is the same everywhere we work, live on video at a fixed weekly time, in ability groups of five to ten or one to one, for ages six to sixty-seven. The first lesson costs nothing; afterwards a group place is USD 100 a month and a private place USD 150.
Which province has better broadband, Munster or Ulster? The census gives a firm answer, and then a different one. Count every household and Ulster, meaning its three counties in this State, edges ahead: 76.6% against Munster's 76.3%. Count only the households that actually answered the question and Munster leads, 82.9% against 82.1%. Same census, same counts, opposite ranking. The difference is 39,859 Munster households that did not say whether they had internet at all, a larger share than in Ulster. Neither calculation is wrong. What would be wrong is publishing one of them without saying which, and that decision, made silently, sits under a great many league tables people take at face value.
Facts last verified 17 September 2026. Teaching is online; no Munster branch is claimed.
Pick by age and ambition. Every course opens with a free lesson from the teacher who would take it, with no payment details needed to book.

See the syllabusHousehold broadband by province, table SAP2022T15T2PROV, calculated two defensible ways. Shares are our arithmetic.
| Province | Households | Did not state | Share of all | Share of those answering |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Munster | 501,571 | 39,859 | 76.3% | 82.9% |
| Ulster (part of) | 113,206 | 7,504 | 76.6% | 82.1% |
| Connacht | 217,015 | 16,219 | 75.7% | 81.8% |
| Leinster | 1,004,936 | 82,232 | 82.0% | 89.3% |
| Munster against Ulster | Ulster ahead | Munster ahead |
In Munster 7.9% of households did not state their internet access; in Ulster (part of) it was 6.6%. Leaving non-response in the denominator drags Munster's share down more, and removing it lifts Munster more. Two provinces this close are separated by that difference alone.
Both, for different questions. Share of all households describes the whole province and assumes nothing about who did not answer. Share of those answering assumes the silent households look like the rest. Each assumption is reasonable and neither is certain.
Both calculations, the ranking each produces, and one sentence stating which was chosen and why. Once the choice is written down, a reader can disagree with it, which is the point.
Almost every survey, form, poll and customer questionnaire has people who skip a question. Somebody then decides, often without noticing they have decided, whether to count those people as a no, leave them out, or spread them across the answers. That choice can move a result by several points and, as here, reorder a table. The honest habit is not a clever statistical fix. It is to count the non-answers, show them, and say what you did with them. A teenager who does that on census data has learned something plenty of published reports still skip.
For the record, the counts behind the Munster row are 382,555 households with broadband, 27,248 with another connection, 51,909 with no internet and 39,859 not stated, 501,571 in all, exactly as the statistics office publishes them. The four provinces sum to the State's 1,836,728 households, which is a quick check that no row has gone missing.
Limerick and Waterford each have a single council for city and county, so their city pages cover the whole county.
The city at coding classes in Cork and the county beyond it at County Cork, each built on its own council's figures.
The county and city pages carry their own census figures and a different data project each, so none of that is repeated here. This page keeps to what the census publishes for Munster as a province.
Totals from the Census 2022 small area population tables for Munster. Percentages are our arithmetic.
| What was counted | Munster |
|---|---|
| Usually resident population | 1,355,848 |
| Born in Ireland | 1,122,711, about 83%, the highest share of the four provinces |
| Born in the United Kingdom, Poland and India | 72,891, 31,962 and 10,934 |
| Aged 3 and over and able to speak Irish | 547,821 of 1,328,518, about 41% |
| Working people who work from home | 173,175 of 600,129, about 29% |
| Journey to work, school or college under 15 minutes | 277,500 people |
Of Munster people who stated a journey time, 51,432 travel an hour or more, about 6.8%, the lowest share of the four provinces by our arithmetic.
About 83% of Munster's residents were born in Ireland, compared with about 80% across the State, again our arithmetic on the census birthplace table.
About 41% of Munster residents aged three and over say they can speak Irish, and the province includes Gaeltacht areas in Cork, Kerry and Waterford under the statistics office's own definition.
Why shorter journeys still leave families short of time
Munster travels less far than Leinster, but a short commute into Cork or Limerick is no help to a teenager in west Kerry or north Tipperary whose nearest computing class may be a long drive away. The same weekly online group reaches both, at the same hour, with learners at the same level.
The ages are approximate; the first lesson decides the level.

A generated answer has to divide by something, and it will not usually say what. If it leaves the non-answers in, Ulster wins; if it drops them, Munster does. Either way the reply reads as settled fact, because nothing in the question asked about the people who did not respond.
A learner who has run both calculations on real census counts asks the question the summary skipped: what happened to the people who did not answer. It is a short question and it changes how every percentage afterwards is read.
Tools make calculation cheap. Deciding what a calculation should include, and saying so, is the part that still needs a person, which is exactly why learning this properly is worth the effort in 2026. The longer argument is in the question of whether coding is worth learning now.
The same arrangement in Dingle, Ennis, Nenagh or Dungarvan.
Each lesson is led in real time by a teacher who expects the learner to take part out loud.
Groups of five to ten are formed by ability, drawing on Munster and other countries so the fit is genuine.
Two lessons in most weeks, about eight a month, at a time fixed once and kept.
Junior Cycle to Leaving Certificate, with mid-terms, holidays and exam weeks planned for.
A computer, sound that works and a connection good enough for video, all checked in the free lesson.
When no group at the right level meets at a workable hour, the course is taught privately.
For the far ends of the province
West Cork, the Kerry peninsulas and north Clare are a long way from the cities of Munster. An online group gives a learner in Castletownbere the same teacher, level and hour as a learner in Limerick city.
Three prices, the same in every Munster county.
A complete first lesson, at no charge, ending with a level and a suggested course.
A month in a group of five to ten at one level, about eight lessons.
A month of one to one lessons on the same weekly pattern.
Fees are charged monthly in US dollars at the single rate used outside India, so Tralee and Waterford pay the same and no euro price exists beside it. No payment is taken before the free lesson has agreed a course and a time, and the pricing page explains pauses, missed lessons and switching format.

Let us know the learner's age and interests and we will plan the first hour around them, from a Scratch game with skipped turns to census data where the silent households change the answer.
What families in the south ask most often.
The 2022 census province tables record 1,355,848 usually resident people in Munster, in 501,571 households.
Clare, Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford. We have pages for all six, with separate city and county pages for Cork.
Learners calculate household broadband shares for each province two ways, with and without the households that did not answer, and find that Munster and Ulster swap places. They then write down which method they chose and why.
Yes. The statistics office defines Gaeltacht areas in seven counties, three of them in Munster: Cork, Kerry and Waterford.
Among people who stated a journey time, about 6.8% in Munster travel an hour or more, the lowest share of the four provinces by our arithmetic on census counts.
After school, evenings and weekend mornings. Our teachers are in India, four and a half hours ahead of Ireland in summer and five and a half in winter, and the slot is agreed in the free lesson.
Yes. The course list runs from Scratch for young children to Python, data and AI courses for teenagers and adults, and the free lesson is where the right one is chosen.
No, and we never imply one. Teaching is live over video only, with no premises in Ireland. A learner needs a laptop or desktop, working sound and a steady connection, and the number shown here belongs to India.
The first lesson is free. After that a shared place costs USD 100 a month and brings two live lessons a week, about eight monthly, with five to ten learners; one to one on the same schedule is USD 150 a month. Everything is agreed before payment.
Five to ten, grouped by ability, pace and goal rather than age or address. Where nothing suitable meets at a workable hour, we teach one to one instead.
The other three provinces each have a page: Leinster, Connacht and Ulster, for its three counties in the State. For a comparison of online coding schools see this guide, and the Ireland page lists every page we have written.
