Transition Year

Transition Year is an optional one-year school  programme that can be taken in the year after the Junior Certificate.

The programme aims to promote the personal, social and educational  development of pupils and to prepare them for their role as autonomous, participative and responsible members of society.

It is a year in which students have the opportunity to:
  • Try out all Leaving Certificate subjects
  • Develop key skills they will need in the transition from Junior to Senior cycle
  • To sample possible careers through work experience
  • To grow personally through involvement in a wide range of experiences and extra-curricular activities

More information on the 2024/25 TY programme will be available here in due course.
