The upgrade to our teachers and students computer facilities has allowed us to schedule Computer Studies classes for all year groups (senior cycle students timetabled subject to subject options). Students will now be doing the ICS Skills card over 6 years which includes an expanded ECDL syllabus and for junior cycle students, digital media, computational thinking, multi media storytelling and micro controllers which supports the New Junior Certificate or Junior Cycle Student Award (JCSA) Key Skill of Managing Information.

The upgrade will enhance all the other uses of IT that our teachers are engaged in such as our virtual learning platform Stratford Moodle and classes in Scratch, CoderDojo, Information Literacy Module, Massive On-line Courses (MOOCs)  in Project Maths and testing such as Cognitive Aptitude Tests (CAT).
