St. Ciarán's ASD Programme is based on the philosophy of educational inclusion, where students with specialised needs receive their education within the least restrictive setting of the school's mainstream classrooms and activities.
Students in the ASD Programme can access the homeroom for curricular support classes, social outings & classes unique to the ASD Programme focusing on each students own strengths and needs.
We provide the opportunity for all of our students to achieve the greatest level of meaningful independence, whilst at the same time catering for their educational needs.
We cater for a wide range of students such as those pursuing state examinations including the Junior Cycle, the Level 2 Learning Programme and the Leaving Certificate. We also cater to those focusing on personal skills aimed at increasing their independence and life skills once they graduate.
