In St. Paul's Community College we have a fantastic team that work together to promote Science Technology Engineering and Maths or STEM. In our new science labs we have new equipment that has transformed how we can teach science to students. This has also allowed students to pursue their own interests in science with extra curricular activities such as Space Week, Science Week or the BT Young Scientist, to name a few. We have recently had successful entrants on behalf of the school. These students got the opportunity to work with the WIT for their research and developed wonderful relationships for future endeavours. Our school has a very active Science department where every Junior Cycle student get to experience the sciences. Key sections taught in the subjects are laboratory safety and skills, an awareness of the environment local and globally, biological, chemical and physical worlds. We are actively involved in the National weeks of Science, Engineering, Space and Mathematics where cross-curricular activities and competitions are undertaken. Experiences and enjoyment gained are evident in the uptake of senior cycle science subjects. A wide variety of speakers, demonstrations and excursions are included in the learning within the school
