Transition Year Opportunities 2025/2026

We have created a brochure for Transition Year coordinators around the County.

It shows the wealth of exciting and engaging experiences on offer for their TY students here in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown.

These activities offer students the chance to

  • Engage in independent, self-directed learning
  • Develop general, technical and academic skills
