Junior Certificate

Experience shows that fieldwork can play a vital part in enthusing junior certificate students and can provide the inspiration which convinces them that geography is what they want to do!  Its 'hands on', practical approach, investigating real life situations, provides opportunities for first hand discovery and supports students' understanding of geography.
