Community of Culture Phase V

Community of Culture: This project will provide Transition Year students with an opportunity to participate in a local cultural heritage project, By working independently and as part of a team the students should gain new levels of self-confidence, this is further combined with modes of experiential learning designed to increase their verbal, written and digital literacy skills. These skills are further transferable across a wide spectrum of academic/employment sectors, therefore helping to prepare the students for third-level education or the employment market.
