The School Completion Programme is a targeted programme which aims to increase the numbers of children and young people staying in primary and post primary school and in doing so improve the number that successfully complete the Senior Cycle, or equivalent. The School Completion programme works with students aged 4-18. The focus of the Programme is to work with those who may be at risk of educational disadvantage through early school leaving.
The School Completion Programme aims to impact positively on school:
- Attendance
- Retention
- Participation
The School Completion Programme is a national programme, and an action under the Department of Education & Skills DEIS – ‘Delivering Equality of Opportunity in School’ Plan (2017).
The Programme provides a range of local targeted interventions in disadvantaged schools and communities designed to support the retention of children and young people in education.
The School Completion Programme is funded by Tusla Educational Support Services.
The DSL School Completion Programme operates in one post primary schools and four primary schools in the Ballyfermot area. The project is operated and managed on behalf of the Local Management Committee by Foróige.
