Curriculum

At John Scottus School, our curriculum is designed to foster stillness, attention, and enquiry. Alongside the full Department of Education curriculum for Junior Cycle, Transition Year, and Senior Cycle, we offer a broad, distinctive programme rooted in our unique ethos.

In addition to core subjects, students explore Philosophy, Classical Studies, Well-being, Art, Music, and Drama. We place strong emphasis on language and speech, Maths and Science, and active participation in competitions and events.

Our Physical Education programme includes a wide range of sports, while ICT is fully integrated into learning, supporting digital literacy and collaboration through tools like Microsoft Teams.
