JCT Cluster Day - School Closed

Archived : 26 Feb 2021, 12:00 AM
Dear Parent/Guardian,
We would like to remind you that our school is closed for students on this Thursday 25th February.
This event has been posted in the calendar on this App since before Christmas. This school closure is organised by the DES and the date is outside our control.
A JCT Cluster Day is where the teachers from a number of schools in our area come together in various venues to receive training in their relevant subject area. This training event is directly linked to the introduction of new specifications at Junior Cycle level. It is not linked to this year's JC Examinations. As with almost everything at present this whole day event will be online.
Students will have a break from their school timetable. We will not have live classes nor will teachers post new assignments on Thursday. Students should take the opportunity to get in some exercise while adhering to all the current Covid19 guidelines.
Lessons will resume on Friday.
Take care.
