A Parent's Guide to the Junior Cycle

Transitioning to Post-Primary and Supporting Your Child Through the Junior Cycle

Are you the parent or guardian of an incoming first year or Junior Cycle student?
If so,

• Are you concerned about your child starting first year in September?
• Would you like to know how to support your child’s successful learning and social development through the Junior Cycle?
• Are you aware of the new requirements for the Junior Cycle?

If you answered Yes to any of these questions, A Parent’s Guide to the Junior Cycle is for you. The world of education for post-primary students has changed significantly over the past number of years, particularly with the establishment of the new Junior Cycle. 
Coming with the new Junior Cycle is a new language which parents need to be familiar with if they are to understand the educational journey of their child and the assessment approaches awaiting them in post-primary school.
