Students pursued classical subjects, with many students matriculated at Trinity College Dublin. Daniel Hamblin’s school, 58 George’s St., Cork, was founded in 1824. Hamblin would have been known as a teacher preparing students for University entrance exams, he also taught at the Cork Mechanics Institute.
