Transition Year

 

The TY Programme Statement is designed around the development and learning of students moving from junior cycle into senior cycle, and as they prepare for their future lives as local, national and global citizens.

 

The statement offers guidance to schools on how to develop a TY programme for all students. Schools have autonomy and flexibility to design their TY programme within the parameters of this TY Programme Statement.

 

 

Coordination of TY, and the role of the TY Coordinator is central to how the TY Programme Statement can facilitate effective TY programmes.

 

The TY co-ordinator is Ms. Edel Murphy. The coordination of TY works best through a TY Core Team, led by the TY Coordinator.
