Since 2014, the new Junior Cycle now features newly developed subjects and short courses, a focus on literacy, numeracy and key skills, and classroom based assessments. Schools can opt to go for the original key dates or avail of the flexibility offered by the broader timeframe as provided by the NCCA in November 2018. Schools have more freedom to design programes that meet the learning needs of all students.
Students entering First Year in Coláiste Eoin are not asked to pick subjects in advance. We give them the opportunity to study all available subjects, so that they can make an informed decision as to which subjects they would like to continue studying for Junior Cycle.
