All very fascinating and I bow to the wisdom of the historians. It does, however, prompt the imagination: were the school’s pupils/students the children of gaol inmates? Did they live in the gaol as well, with their parents (fathers/mothers) ? Interesting from a social perspective, how it all must have worked.

And yes, there was indeed a school in the Enniskillen Gaol confirmed by: Extracted from Lewis’ Topographical Dictionary of Ireland (1837) Enniskillen: The county gaol, built about 20 years since, is near the town, on the Dublin road: it. is on the radiating plan, with the governor’s house in the centre, and will contain 120 prisoners; the number of cells is 36, of which four are for females; and there are five day-rooms, seven airing yards, a treadmill, hospital, and school.

I have not seen this type of entry in the other published lists. Does anyone know how or why this school was established? Were the students primarily adults or does this type of school imply children were incarcerated as well?
