Senior Cycle Redevelopment
The programme for the redevelopment of Senior Cycle was set out in 2022.
The redevelopment of Senior Cycle is guided by the vision of a Senior Cycle that delivers “equity and excellence for all”. The reimagined Senior Cycle will enrich the student experience in school, maintain the quality of Ireland’s education system and reduce the pressures on students.
The redeveloped Senior Cycle includes the development of new and revised subject curricula, with a significant emphasis on additional assessment components outside of the traditional final written exams.
