Transition Year Programme

The Transition Year Programme is available to Fourth-Year students. It is not mandatory and the Transition Year Policy is available on this website in the Policies section. Transition Year gives students many wonderful opportunities to grow and develop outside of the classroom. We place great emphasis on personal development in TY, as well as academic progress also. TY affords students the opportunity to learn more about themselves, with activities such as Voluntary Work, Work Experience, Musicals/Dramas, Foreign Trips, Gaisce,  YSI, and many more being made available to all students. We also use e-Portfolios to enhance students learning and self-management. The skills that students develop during Transition Year can be of huge benefit to them as they carry these skills in to their Senior Cycle education.
