Transition Year          Introduction

The Mission
The Transition Year programme in Loreto College Foxrock offers each student a broad holistic curriculum enabling her to develop her own particular gifts, reach her full potential and to develop a love of learning.  Every opportunity is given to enable students to develop powers of critical reflection thereby building independence of mind, increasing social awareness and social competences and nurturing maturation.  It is hoped that by the end of Transition Year the programme will have contributed to the social development of these young teenagers so that they grow up to be autonomous, participative and responsible members of society.
