As students in Transition Year and 3rd year start the process of choosing their senior cycle programmes and subjects, we at Nenagh College would like to take the opportunity to acknowledge and appreciate the many different pathways available to students post the Leaving Certificate. From CAO routes: University and Technological Universities. Non-CAO options: Colleges of Further Education and Training (QQI/PLC Courses), Apprenticeships, Traineeships and Tertiary Degrees. Alternative options: Private college courses, direct entry routes, the gap year, study abroad and (dare we mention…) those students who chose the wrong course… and will drop out or repeat a year, the options are vast. There are also access routes into higher education such as the HEAR & DARE schemes. We would like to feature the options that were undertaken by some of the class of 2023.
