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 project is operated and managed on behalf of the Local Management Committee by Foróige.
