Education Fair

The Education Fair, held in the Blanchardstown Centre, has become an annual event in mid-September.

The aim of the education fair is to act as a showcase for all the educational opportunities that are available in Blanchardstown for all ages, levels of ability and qualifications.

People can come along, have a chat, and find out what is on offer, whether they are :-

* early school leavers
* adults who would like to revise their basic reading and writing skills
* older teenagers or adults who may want to do one or two subjects in the Junior or Leaving Certificate
* long term unemployed people - LES/Joblink are there to help

Advice is available from County Dublin VEC on grants for third level students.

Information is also be available on:-

Pre-school education
New Institute of Technology
Post-Leaving Cert courses
Evening Classes
Blanchardstown Youth Service
Home/School Community Liaison Services
The new library and arts centre

There is always a strong emphasis on local educational services for the people of Blanchardstown .
