Archived : 09 May 2021, 12:00 AM
Please see below information from SEC: The State Examinations Commission (SEC) has introduced a facility to allow Leaving Certificate candidates to confirm their subject and level entry details online through the Candidate Self Service Portal, and to indicate whether they want to take the examinations, or to receive SEC Accredited Grades, or both. The Candidate Self Service Portal (CSSP) is a service provided by the State Examinations Commission (SEC) and the Department of Education for 6th year candidates entered for the 2021 Leaving Certificate. The Candidate portal will open at 12 Noon on Wednesday 10 March and close at 6 pm on Tuesday 16 March. The Leaving Certificate Candidate Self Service Portal (CSSP) can be accessed at www.examinations.ie or www.gov.ie/LeavingCertificate. Click on ‘Leaving Certificate Candidate Self Service Portal (CSSP) 2021’. To assist Candidates the SEC has prepared a step by step ‘Before You Start Guide’ which is attached, and we are requesting your assistance in ensuring all candidates have read this Guide and the important information before they commence the registration process on the Candidate Self Service Portal The ‘Before you Start Guide’ (PDF) updates the information provided in Circular 7/21 regarding candidates confirming that they want to sit examinations after the 16 March. Note please that it will be possible for candidates to update their choices at the end of April/early May to include indicating that they want to take an examination in a subject which they had opted out of taking. However, there are limitations on this choice as by the time the portal reopens candidates will have lost the opportunity to take any of the related assessment components in multi-component subjects. Please see attached, Leaving Certificate Short Information For Students, Parents and Guardians.

Online workshops around the area of personal safety have been organised for 1st, 2nd and 3rd Year students. These workshops will take place over the next two weeks (please see schedule below). The programme lasts approx. 2 hours and will cover the following subjects: Consent, bullying, boundaries, body image, texting/sexting, sending and receiving inappropriate images, inappropriate use of words and actions and their consequences. The topics will be discussed age appropriately. We ask that all students have their cameras on as this increases the interaction between the facilitator and students.

Any 5th Year student who would like to interview for Meitheal Team 2021-2022, please email Ms. M. Murphy (mdm@naascbs.ie) for information on the application process. Meitheal is a Youth Leadership Programme organised through the Diocese of Kildare and Leighlin. Interviews are conducted and the Meitheal Team is selected by Meitheal Co-ordinator Robert Norton. Each year, the Meitheal Leaders offer invaluable support to our 1st Year students, helping them settle in to secondary school and we would encourage any aspiring leaders in 5th Year to apply to the Meitheal Programme. This is a fabulous opportunity for the Meitheal Leaders themselves to develop personally and work as part of a team while contributing to school life. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our current Meitheal Leaders and praise them for their wonderful work and positive attitude in mentoring the 1st Years during very challenging times this year. You are a credit to yourselves, Meitheal and Naas CBS. Many thanks, Ms. M. Murphy

Dear 2nd Year Parents, Guardians & Students, Around this time of year, as our 2nd Year students begin their Classroom Based Assessment (CBA) journey, we traditionally like to take an opportunity to bring all 2nd Year Parents & Guardians into the school for a presentation around Junior Cycle. We also like to meet the 2nd Year students to inform them about the new terminology around Junior Cycle and clarify any questions that they may have. Due to covid-19 we are unable to present as normal. Please see the link below for a digital version of this presentation. We hope that you find it useful. Many thanks to our JCT coordinator, Andrew Keating, for his work with this presentation. Please see attached two PDF documents with some frequently asked Q&A's and information about the new junior cycle language. This is also available on our school website www.naascbs.ie under the 'JCT' tab. Wishing all of our 2nd Year students good luck with their CBA's. We hope you engage well with the different activities involved and enjoy the process. drive.google.com/file/d/1BET7Bw6QzvSzuOKJlG5eNcotDfvnTfJ8/view?usp=sharing
