European Studies

The European Studies Programme is a post-primary curriculum based programme linking schools in Ireland with schools across Europe through sustained collaborative projects furthering tolerance, mutual understanding and appreciation of the cultures of others.

Currently more than 300 schools in 25 European Countries are engaged in the programme.

Carrickfergus College currently takes part in both the junior and senior school programmes. Mrs Saunders co – ordinates the work of junior school pupils, while Mr McCready completes the senior programme with year 13 C.O.P.E. students.

Through the European Studies Programme our pupils are currently linked with  schools in England, Wales, Republic of Ireland, Finland, France and Poland.
