Pilot changes to the school day 22-23
Created : 28 May 2022, 6:33 PM
Archived : 09 Sep 2022, 1:00 AM
What are the changes? The school day for the 22-23 school year will start at the same time (8:40) with slightly later finishes on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (15:31) and an earlier finish on Wednesday (13:01). Friday will finish at current time of 15:16. Why are we making these changes? Students have told us that they sometimes find the content of SPHE, CSPE, Ethical Education and Student Enrichment to be too similar. Clan Tutors have said that they would like a time in the morning to meet their clans. A team of Clan Tutors have devised a programme that will replace the subject 'Student Enrichment' that will include a range of topics, skills, content and day-to-day business to be addressed four mornings a week. What will be covered in these sessions? Restorative Practice sessions, Guided Meditation, IT tutoring, Linking with Student Council, Learning protocols, study skills and much more. How will the school know whether the pilot changes have worked or not? We will ask the students, parents and clan tutors about how this has worked.
