Among the 18 listed education-focused startups in Ireland, the largest disclosed round is Tigers Childcare’s $12M venture funding on 2021-11-10; every other disclosed amount in the table is $4M or below, making that $12M figure a clear outlier versus the rest of the disclosed range ($3M rounds recur, with several smaller checks such as $100K on 2021-02-08 and $300K on 2022-04-19). Disclosed amounts also cluster by geography: Dublin dominates, with multiple entries headquartered in Dublin city (e.g., Camara on 2026-06-17 at $3M; The Corporate Governance Institute on 2025-05-21 at $3M; Digital Learning Institute on 2023-07-19 at $2M). Time-wise, the rows span 2021-02-08 (Learn Chinese Plus, $100K) through 2026-06-17 (Camara, $3M), and nearly all fully disclosed rounds appear in the more recent half of the window. Stage and disclosure are mixed: Seed shows up repeatedly with disclosed checks such as Educatly ($3M, 2024-07-29) and Examfly ($2M, 2024-02-06), while “Series Unknown” appears frequently (5 rows) and “undisclosed” amounts appear in 5 rows.

Frequently asked
What’s the biggest disclosed round in this Ireland education slice, and how far above the rest is it?
Tigers Childcare’s $12M venture (2021-11-10) is the only disclosed amount above $4M in the table. The next-highest disclosed figure is Catalyst’s $4M (2024-04-22), with multiple other disclosed rounds landing at $3M (e.g., Camara on 2026-06-17 and The Corporate Governance Institute on 2025-05-21).
Do the most recent closings cluster into a narrow time window, or are they spread evenly across years?
The newest entry is Camara (2026-06-17, $3M) and several other recent rounds also sit in 2025–2026 (e.g., The Corporate Governance Institute at $3M on 2025-05-21; Change by Degrees at $730K on 2025-03-03). Older disclosed rounds extend back to Learn Chinese Plus (2021-02-08, $100K) and Tigers Childcare (2021-11-10, $12M), so the overall set spans the full 2021–2026 range rather than concentrating into a single quarter.
Are specific cities over-represented, or is the geography evenly distributed across Ireland?
Dublin appears repeatedly, including multiple companies explicitly listed as Dublin (e.g., Camara in Dublin on 2026-06-17, The Corporate Governance Institute in Dublin on 2025-05-21, and Digital Learning Institute in Dublin on 2023-07-19). There are also notable non-Dublin entries like Change by Degrees (Kinsale, 2025-03-03, $730K) and Examfly (Dublin, 2024-02-06, $2M), but the pattern for the shown rows is Dublin-heavy.
What disclosure pattern shows up most: labeled rounds, “Series Unknown,” or undisclosed amounts?
“Series Unknown” appears in 5 of the 18 rows (e.g., Camara on 2026-06-17 and QedON on 2026-06-03). “Undisclosed” amounts also appear in 5 rows (e.g., QedON on 2026-06-03 and ITUS Secure Technologies on 2025-10-13), which makes the fully comparable, disclosed-size analysis rely on fewer datapoints.
Which stages dominate among disclosed rounds, and do Seed rounds show a consistent size range?
Seed is one of the most repeated stage labels with disclosed sizes in a relatively tight band: Educatly is $3M (2024-07-29), Examfly is $2M (2024-02-06), Change by Degrees is $730K (2025-03-03), and Bowsy is $300K (2022-04-19). By contrast, the largest disclosed amount ($12M) is labeled “Venture - Series Unknown” for Tigers Childcare (2021-11-10), not Seed.
Are there additional outliers beyond the largest check that are worth deeper investigation?
Yes—Learn Chinese Plus is the smallest disclosed amount at $100K (2021-02-08), which sits far below the rest of the disclosed set (e.g., Bowsy at $300K on 2022-04-19 and Numeracy for Life at $550K on 2024-10-09). Also, multiple firms with “Series Unknown” (such as Catalyst at $4M on 2024-04-22 and Numeracy for Life at $550K on 2024-10-09) combine sizable disclosed rounds with unclear stage labels, making them candidates for follow-up on round structure.
