The Leaving Certificate Vocational Programme is an optional subject that students can take alongside the mainsteam Leaving Cert. This subject has a focus on enterprise and preparation for working life. The subject is taken in 5th & 6th year and combines the academic strengths of the Leaving Certificate with a dynamic focus on self-directed learning, enterprise, work and the community. LCVP students take two additional courses, called Link Modules, in the areas of Preparation for the World of Work and Enterprise Education.
Assessment of LCVP takes the form of both written examination and a portfolio of continuous coursework completed in the duration of the two-year programme of study.
