Our Senior Mentoring Programme strives to encourage students to stay in school, increase their self-esteem and develop an awareness of the workplace over the course of their senior cycle. Mentoring is one of the most powerful ways to support a young person achieve their true potential in life.
Over the one-year period, students meet with business employees for an hour every three weeks to discuss topics such as career potential or direction, researching college options, approaches to study, CV writing, interview preparation, etc. The mentor acts as an additional support to students to keep them focused on study and subtly communicating the importance of school completion.
Curragh Community College is proudly partnered with Horse Racing Ireland to deliver the Mentoring programme.
Programme Coordinator: Ms. Sinéad Gorman
