About Primary Politics and Society enrichment in Ireland

Politics and Society is a Leaving Certificate subject, not a primary one. Primary pupils meet related ideas through SPHE and SESE, and these sessions build on that for children who enjoy arguing about what is fair.

The material is rules, rights, fairness and how decisions get made - in a family, a classroom, a town and a country. Children have strong instincts about fairness and very little vocabulary for them, so most of the work is giving them language precise enough to make a real argument.

The transferable skill is holding a position and supporting it with a reason, then listening to a counter-argument without abandoning the point. That is worth as much in English and History as it is here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Politics and Society a primary school subject in Ireland?+
No. Politics and Society is a Leaving Certificate subject. These sessions are enrichment, drawing on the citizenship ideas primary pupils meet in SPHE and SESE, for children who enjoy discussing fairness and how things are decided.
Is my child too young for this?+
We start from where your child actually is. Sessions are pitched at their reading level and attention span, and the tutor stops as soon as interest does rather than pushing through a syllabus.
Are lessons personalised?+
Every session is live one-to-one with a dedicated tutor, so the pace and the examples are built around your child.
Is this political in a party sense?+
No. Sessions deal with how decisions are made and what fairness means, not with party positions, and tutors do not advocate a view.
What age does this suit?+
Generally from Third Class upwards, once children can hold a position and consider an objection to it.
Does it connect to anything in school?+
Yes - SPHE and the citizenship strands of SESE cover related ground, and CSPE follows at Junior Cycle.
