Level 2 and Level 3 in the Junior Cycle English Classroom
Aim: To support teachers working with learners following the Level 2 Learning Programmes (L2LPs) and learners following Level 3 in the Junior Cycle English classroom.
“Junior Cycle places students at the centre of the educational experience, enabling them to actively participate in their communities and in society and to be resourceful and confident learners in all aspects and stages of their lives.”
(Towards a Framework for Junior Cycle, 2011 – Page 9)
“Every student should be taught a curriculum that is appropriate to his/her developmental level.”
