Summer CTYI Programme

This programme takes place in two separate three week session in June and July each year. We offer both Residential & Commuter Places. As well as having a strong academic structure, the CTYI summer programme for second level students has an extensive social programme. Outside of classes, students participate in sporting activities, day trips, discos, table quizzes and more. We employ a team of residential staff who coordinate the social activities and ensure that the students settle in, have a balanced timetable and an altogether enjoyable time.

Eligibility

Regardless of previous qualification for our Primary School Programmes students must take part in the Talent Search or provide an Educational Psychologist’s report to take part in the CTYI programme. Pending the results of either method, students may be found eligible for Science or Humanities programmes, or both. For more info on this, please click here.
