Junior Cycle
The Department of Education and Skills has introduced a New framework for Junior cycle on a phased basis since September 2014. The Rational underpinning the new Junior Cert is to enable learners to achieve their full potential and to contribute to Ireland’s economic, social and cultural development. As a progressive 21st century school here in St.Tiernan’s we are continuing to work on updating our curriculum and developing the programme we offer at Junior Cycle.
