It is the only course that we offer, so we can concentrate on keeping it fresh and up to date each year. We offer classes in smaller rural areas outside the larger cities. In this way, students who live in rural areas do not have to travel to Dublin, Cork, etc. and can avail of Higher Education in Interior Design. We simply locate a large, safe hotel with excellent conference facilities, and rent this for the school year.

Amanda received her training in interior design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. For 15 years she worked as a professional interior designer in the United States.

The School is run by teacher/owner Chenta Ní Riordáin and serves pupils within the Cork region. At Chenta Music School, pupils have the option of playing piano or keyboard as a hobby or they can sit exams. The exams that pupils sit are with London College of Music. The exams are recognised internationally with two categories that a pupil can choose from. The first is the grade exam, in which one can choose scales or a study to be played and three pieces are selected. The exam candidate also sits aural and sight-reading tests. The second option is to omit the scales / study and the aural and sight-reading tests and the pupil instead studies four pieces of a set standard and performs these only. Pupils can use their exam pieces and / or other pieces to perform in their practical exams for the Junior and Leaving Certificate.
