Fantastic to hear An Taoiseach announce the next stage of Wicklow College of FET under the #FETCollegeoftheFuture capital programme in Bray today. “Colleges will offer a scale, quality & way that works for learners in the 21st century, where lifelong learning will be essential”

@stwolstans students finished off our #5*S third workshop today. They used @GISinSchools storymaps to begin their TY portfolio. A great way for them to showcase their work!

Tertiary degrees offer a new pathway to get a third-level degree.
Better yet, you’ll have access to both campuses throughout your studies. Double the study spaces, double the gym facilities, and no fees for the years studying in further education & training! 👌👌

We can’t take a one dimensional approach to education, it’s about helping young people find what they are passionate about and turn it into a career - there are so many exciting opportunities on offer @WorldSkillsIE
Great launch event this morning with Min @podonovan for @WorldSkillsIE 2024. This event is an amazing opportunity for young people to see the range of options available in tertiary education. #SkillsChangeLives
