TY Work Placements


As you know, we will be running online work placements for the next two weeks and there will be no classes.


Everyone who filled in the TY Work Placement Google Form has been facilitated with a placement.


All TYs should have received an email from me to your stmc.ie Gmail address confirming your placement over the last few days. If you haven't - please let me know.


Those who are enrolled in the

  • online Law Workshops with LawEd will be directly contacted by Kate Fleming with log in details.

  • podcasting/vlogging courses (for both weeks or either week 1 or week 2) have been signed up to a Google Classroom: "Podcasting"

  • all other Work Placement options have been (or will be) contacted directly by your contact person/employer in your e placement via email.


IMPORTANT NOTE:


Many of the work placements will be run as project based experiences.

  • You will be expected to respond (making sure to "reply all") courteously to emails from your employer

  • Please make sure that your camera is on & you are smartly dressed when you meet via video conferencing (eg Zoom, Teams, Meet etc)

Work Employment Courses


Finally, you may find that you have a task set by your employer complete and some unscheduled/extra time on your hands.


You will be expected to complete at least 2 online Work Employment Courses a week (to date no student has completed more than 2 of these courses).


You will be required to submit a screengrab of your completed course(s) on Google classroom. Instructions (via assignments) will be posted throughout next week to everyone in the year.


Parents can sign up to updates of these assignments via the Google Classroom (1-3 times a week)

 

5th Year Subject Choices


Sending these details out again:


Please see attached a copy of the 5th Year subject choice form for TY students below. It is also available through each class's Guidance Google Classroom. The form needs to be emailed to edel@stmc.ie by March 22.



Both Mr. Hogan and Mr. O'Connor will begin meeting students in their respective classes, individually, directly after the midterm during what is your two week’s work experience. The schedule of appointment times and Zoom link are also available in your Guidance Google Classroom. Please ensure that you have made arrangements to be free, and log on at your appointed time.

Those that are working with together academy during the Work Placement will be developing the first stages of this partnership with strategists, marketeers, start ups of well known Irish business as well as the CEO of the European Travel Commission.
