Is your school ready?

Computer science is entering the Irish curriculum.

Primary

The new Science, Technology and Engineering specification puts computational thinking at its heart from junior infants to 6th Class. From September 2026, every school will begin implementing the new curriculum areas on a phased basis, with full implementation by 2031/32. Schools that build staff confidence in computing now will be ready when STEM's turn comes.

Post-primary

Computing at post-primary is optional but growing fast. A revised 100-hour Junior Cycle Coding short course, now including AI and ethics, applies to incoming first years from September 2026, and Leaving Certificate Computer Science numbers keep climbing. Experience CS suits delivery as a Junior Cycle short course or a school-designed Transition Year module, giving students a route into computing before senior cycle.

Experience CS lets your school build these skills inside the subjects you already teach. Fully funded training shows you how, step by step.

Nothing that suits?

Request a session for your school

Tell us what would work and we will build a session around it. Requested sessions are always online and run as a 60-minute block, so they fit inside your Croke Park hours. Pick any start time between 9am and 6pm.

Requests go to the Creative Hut education team, who coordinate online sessions for the programme. You will hear back within two working days.
