There is an ongoing training for staff for this purpose. There is a year head appointed for each year group. They monitor academic progress, discipline and attendance. Teachers in their subject area advise on the best ways to study, but a member of staff speaks specifically to all classes on study skills. After school each evening there is a study class supervised by members of staff.
Progress reports are an integral part of our school.
September 1993 saw the introduction of Meitheal into our school. The purpose of the programme is to train a group of ten senior pupils in leadership and self development to respond to the needs of first years. In preparation the group and it's co-ordinator spend a week been trained each summer in leadership and self development. Through hard work and dedication Meitheal is a resounding success and we look forward to building on this foundation each year. Social, Personal and Health Education.
