List of Christian Brothers schools

The following is a list of the schools, colleges, and other educational institutions founded, run or staffed (in any capacity) by the Congregation of Christian Brothers (sometimes called the Irish Christian Brothers) since 1802. Some schools no longer exist, some are incorporated in new schools and some have changed their names. The names of defunct schools are included but linked to their successor schools, if any. Some schools have connections with other religious institutes as well as with the Christian Brothers. In addition, many schools no longer have Christian Brothers on staff, but still maintain their connection to the Congregation.
