What will happen to the feedback
We will compile the feedback on the consultations and a report will be posted on this website. The course committee for Art, Craft, Design will then meet to make whatever amendments are necessary. Once finalised, the syllabus will be considered by the Junior Cycle Review Committee and presented to Council for approval.
Following this, the syllabus will be issued to the Department of Education and Science for introduction to schools.
