Update September 2020:

Second Teaching Subject Supports 2019/2020  https://jct.ie/modern_foreign_languages/cpd_workshops_2019_2020.php 

As a result of restrictions due to Covid-19, the interruption to school openings at the commencement of the 2020/2021 school year, and the prolonged period of school closure since March 2020 which has resulted in significant loss of class contact time, JCT is unable to offer face-to-face second teaching subject CPD workshops during the September/October 2020 period this year.Instead, we have re-purposed our 2019/2020 subject workshops to make them suitable for online engagement by teachers. Our subject CPD workshops facilitated during 2019/2020, therefore, have been uploaded below. https://jct.ie/modern_foreign_languages/cpd_workshops_2019_2020.php
