The Abbey School (formerly Abbey CBS) is a Christian Brothers Secondary School in the town of Tipperary, County Tipperary, Ireland. The Abbey is an all-boys school and has 332 students [1]

In recent years the school has been extended twice.[2][3][4] The first extension is known as the "Edmund Rice Wing" and contains an area for student lockers as well as a Construction Studies room, Woodwork room and Technology laboratory. The second extension was the complete renovation of an old stable which is now called the "Mary Rice Centre" which houses a special needs area, learning support and one-to-one education and a library.[citation needed]

The current principal of the school is David Sadlier [5]
