Class Tutor and Year Heads

Every class group at Junior Cycle has a Year Head and a Class Tutor.

The Year Head is often the first port of call if there is a concern around attendance, behaviour or academics. The Year Head can be contacted through the main school office or directly through their emails below. The Class Tutor is also a support for our students regarding classroom layout and seating plans.
