De La Salle College Waterford is a secondary school in Waterford, Ireland with over 1,000 students and 70 teachers. It was criticised by Department of Education inspectors in 2012 for taking on €500,000 in debts for refurbishments with little educational benefit, and for teachers teaching subjects for which they were not qualified.[1]
