Comments on JCSP

"The JCSP supports pupils to successfully complete their Junior Certificate in a planned programme, by teaching and learning methods that are comfortable for their needs, which allows them to measure their progress and encourages and rewards their efforts and achievements."
(Mr. Fiorentini, Principal)

"JCSP means accentuating the positive and celebrating achievement. It ensures success as all tasks are broken down into bite size pieces"
(Ms. Carmel Doherty, Deputy Principal and former Co-ordinator)

"The Junior Certificate Schools Programme is a world class way of educating boys and girls who might otherwise leave school early. It is a very enjoyable way of learning. I would have loved this when I was at school"
(Ms. Catherine Monagle, Co-ordinator of Special Needs)

"Being an Anchor teacher for three years with this class has enabled me to establish a very good working relationship with the students. I have been in a position to monitor and encourage their progress from year to year. Many of these students intend to take up one of our senior cycle programmes next year".
(Mr. Paul Browne, Anchor Teacher)

"Being a JCSP Anchor teacher for the last few years has taught me more about teaching than the previous ten years. My class give me a great reason to get out of bed every morning. It's so much fun and rewarding."
