Eurocampus

In September 2001 the secondary school of the Lycée Français d’Irlande relocated to the St. Kilian’s, Clonskeagh campus as the first step towards providing a true European style education for Dublin. After four years of negotiations and shared experiences, the Lycée Français d'Irlande and St. Kilian's Deutsche Schule agreed to join their operations.  On Monday, 29th August 2005 they entered into a new phase of European co-operation.  In keeping with the St. Kilian's ethos, the Eurocampus Junior Cycle deepens the European outlook by creating a learning environment in which different European traditions mutually enrich each other to create an awareness and acceptance of diversity. 

Within the framework of the Irish education system. but with a view to maintaining national specifics, Irish, German and French students are setting out on a course leading to the Irish Junior Certificate examination in three years. Those students who have enrolled in the  Lycée section of the joint department will also sit the French Junior Cycle examination Diplôme national de brevet (DNB), which gives them the choice of then either continuing their education within the Irish system, or of working towards the French Baccalauréat in the Senior Cycle of the Lycée.

The Eurocampus at the St. Kilian's site is now one of the most exciting and innovative educational projects in the state and provides an opportunity to develop a model for future schools abroad.  It will help to diversify the multicultural sources upon which Irish education can draw, and which are the hallmarks of European education in the 21st century.
