Senior Cycle Programmes & Options 2025/26

Moving from Junior Cycle to Senior Cycle is an important decision for both students and parents. This transition should be carefully considered through discussions at home, supported by relevant information.

Our Senior Cycle Parental Information Night, held on Tuesday, March 18th at 7:30 PM, provided key insights into the options available. This information has also been shared with students in school. For parents who were unable to attend, please find below the essential details and important actions required.
