Junior Cycle Information Meeting for Parents/Guardians

An important Information Meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday 15th November at 7.30pm. This is for parents and guardians of first and second year students who are taking from three to seven subjects as part of the new Junior Cycle Framework.

Audrey Doyle from JCT (Junior Cycle for Teachers) will present on the new framework and answer any questions that you might have.

This new Framework is value-driven,  based on 8 principles that ensure:

• we have the best quality education for our students while supporting their wellbeing
• we stimulate creativity and innovation necessary for the future with a deep capacity of learning how to learn
• we ensure all students are included in the learning, regardless of background or ability, including giving them the maximum flexibility and choice that any school can accommodate
• students link more effectively with primary and senior cycle education while truly engaging students in their learning and participating actively in all forms of school life

We would encourage you attend this important meeting to gain the essential knowledge you will need to support the introduction of the framework for the benefit of all our students into the future.
