18% Leitrim5.7% Ireland
How do we know this?
Method
Share of charities in this group, counted from the register by registered address, compared with the national share. A difference of at least three percentage points and a ratio of 1.35 or more is needed to show.
Limitations
  • Counts are by registered address, which is often a head office or a trustee, not where the work happens.
  • No population figures are held, so these are shares of organisations, not rates per person.
  • Purpose labels are those given by each national register and are not identical across countries.
EducationHigh confidence

Smaller schools on average

The average school here has about 158 pupils, compared with about 248 across Ireland (44 schools with a pupil count).

158 Leitrim248 Ireland
How do we know this?
Method
Pupils summed over schools that report a pupil count, divided by the number of those schools, for this area and for the whole country.
Limitations
  • Schools without a pupil count are left out.
  • Pupil counts are from different years in different countries.
  • This describes school size, not quality.

What we do not hold here

  • Population, housing, crime, income and other census-style figures: we hold none for Ireland here, so nothing above is a rate per person.
  • Eircode is not open data, so a full Eircode is reduced to its three-character routing key and charities are placed by town or, failing that, county centre.
  • About 4 in 10 charities are placed only to the middle of their county because the register gives no town we can place; the page says so on each list.
  • Dail constituencies are not matched to an address; councils are matched by county.
