Junior Cycle

Junior Cycle

The Junior Cycle framework concentrates on the building of key life skills in young adolescents, to prepare them for their lives as young and growing adults in the senior cycle and after Leaving Certificate. These skills are developed in each learner across a wide range of subjects.

Students are formally assessed throughout 1st, 2nd and 3rd Year through CBAs and ATs (Classroom Based Assessments and Assessment Tasks) and they take final, formal written examinations at the end of 3rd Year. The Junior Certificate Profile of Achievement brings together these elements of assessment and reports on Other Areas of Learning. The Certificate is rewarded by the State Examinations Commission.

Our Junior Certificate students study a combination of core subjects, short courses, optional subjects and non-exam subjects, keeping them busy and providing a focus during the often challenging years of early adolescence.
