Intensive Revision Courses
CTA offers intensive revision courses throughout the academic year for Leaving Cert. students 5th & 6th years, in French/Spanish/German/English/Irish/Polish/Maths/Accounting. These programmes are taught by a team of highly experienced teachers who strive to get the best from each student. Key topical areas are dealt with and there will be constant emphasis on exam techniques. Tuition is backed up by comprehensive study and revision notes. These courses are designed to help students maximise their study efforts as the Leaving Cert. examinations approach. Our Language revision courses are delivered through our ‘Lingua Revise Booster’ programmes and the Maths Booster courses are delivered through our ‘CTA LC Maths Booster’ suite of courses. Likewise for Accounting. We also run a Booster course in creative writing for LC HL English.

***All of our Booster Courses require a minimum of 10 registrants in order to take place. Whilst we expect to reach this minimum in all courses, in the event that there are not enough participants registered by the Sunday evening before the first day of the course, we reserve the right to cancel the course and process a full refund of ‘fees paid’ to the student/parent!
****Please be advised that whilst a ‘deposit paid’ secures your place onto a course, it does not guarantee admission to the course. In order to gain admission to any of our courses, fees need to be paid in full prior to the course start date. The reason for this is mainly because for many of our courses the full ‘book of notes’ for the entire course is handed out at the first lesson. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation with regard to this. We reserve the right to refuse admission to any student who has not paid the course fees in full prior to the start date of the course (ie. the first lesson)
