Our courses have a strong examination emphasis, focusing on key exam topics which are extremely beneficial to Junior and Leaving Certificate candidates.

Students of the course will enjoy studying their course curriculum in a motivated environment and are provided with sample answers and reference notes which will be invaluable to them throughout the school year.

There are three courses, PRE-JUNIOR CERTIFICATE for 5th / 6th Class Primary, PRE-JUNIOR CERTIFICATE and PRE-LEAVING CERTIFICATE. The courses run for two weeks Monday through to Friday. Pre-Junior Certificate for 5th / 6th Class Primary runs from 9am to 3pm and Pre Junior and Pre Leaving Certificate from 9am - 4pm.
