Curriculum Changes and In-service

The new Primary Curriculum Framework is being launched today. This will lead to changes in how schools prioritise their time. We will let you know as these change are rolled out. Greater use of technology and an introduction of a modern language are likely to be included. We are already well ahead on this front with 40+ chromebooks, interactive screens in each class and Italian being taught in 6th class. Our current curriculum is more that 25 years old so it is time to refresh - a lot has changed in the last quarter of a century!
