The All-Ireland Vocational Schools Championship was a Gaelic Athletic Association football and hurling competition. There are two levels of competition. Individual schools compete for county, provincial and All-Ireland competitions.[1] County teams selected from schools within each county also competed for provincial and All-Ireland competitions.[2] The final intercounty championships in both codes were played in 2012, while the last schools championships were played in 2013.
Caherciveen are the only school to have won the two All-Ireland senior "A" secondary school competitions available, the vocational schools "A" championship (2000) and the Hogan Cup
(2009)

The following is a list of the top teams by number of wins:
^Bonner, Declan (28 May 2020). "Champions dethroned". Donegal News. p. 55. Our Vocational School team won the All-Ireland title against Leitrim in the curtain raiser [to the NFL final in 1995 which, in reference to the column title, was played one week before Donegal knocked out Down in the Ulster SFC preliminary round, 25 years before the column was written]. Brian McLaughlin, Eamon Reddin, Barry Monaghan and Ray Sweeney were all on that team and would go on to represent the county at senior level.
