Over the moon to announce that the wonderful Science Foundation Ireland have awarded me with a Discover Grant for my project Bright Minds, Brilliant Discoveries! 🍾 This project supports gifted students from DEIS schools as they learn how to carry out science research projects CTYI Dublin City University 🎉

amazing to see celebrating 1500 years of St Brigid

Another report and again no mention of gifted students. Given the high number of gifted students now being identified with autism and the policy within Department of Education to seemingly refer all these students to CTYI without consultation this seems like yet another backward step.

as a fellow dog lover, I knew it was the way to go. So happy it was well received ❤️

So I got the BEST ever CTYI Kris Kindle present today. A portrait of Bentley and Abby from cathy from her uncle Paul Woods. The dogs seem to love it Dublin City University

Our pet Christmas tree was visited by a staff member's pup today and needless to say the lovely Dougal will be joining the tree shortly

“Our findings should help guide the heated debates about technology away from hyperbole and towards high-quality science'. Great to see some evidence being inserted into what has been a largely emotional debate. In reality, it's far too soon to be definitive about any of this

If you could please donate, you’ll be be helping a tonne of men who like me, fake it with a smile but secretly need help.

If that’s not reason enough, please spend a couple of euro to laugh at me and the lads The Unit!

I found this teddy 🧸 outside the gym on the St Patrick's Campus DCU Institute of Education @DCU. I have left it at reception. I know my girls would be devastated so please share and hopefully we can reunite with the owner #lostteddy

If there is something that we get the most queries about @ctyi it’s the news for more accessible information to help students. We are very proud that this new free publication addresses many of these questions.
