The school, which was first built in the late 19th century, originally had just one room. This school building was destroyed in a fire in 1940. While the school was being rebuilt, lessons were moved to two rooms in nearby
Bunowen Castle. At that time, the castle was in a poor condition and "described
301:
as cold and draughty". The school was rebuilt and reopened in 1945. When the school at nearby
Dunloughan closed in 1967, its 15 pupils transferred to Aillebrack school. As of 2010, there were 27 children enrolled in Aillebrack National School.
