Is é aidhm an Chláir don Treoir ná ‘a chinntiú go bhfuil rochtain ag gach dalta ar threoir chuí’. Agus é sin á dhéanamh cuidíonn an tseirbhís treorach i gColáiste Pobail Bhaile Lotrail le daltaí ina bhforbairt phearsanta agus shóisialta, oideachasúil agus ghairme agus iad ar scoil.
I measc na bpríomhdhaoine a bhfuil baint acu leis an tseirbhís seo a sholáthar tá:
- Príomhoide
- Leas-Phríomhoidí
- Stiúrthóir
- Comhairleoirí Treorach
- Caomhneoirí
- Oidí Ranga
The aim of the guidance programme is to ‘ensure that all students have access to appropriate guidance’. In so doing the guidance service in Luttrellstown Community College assists students in their personal and social, educational and career development while in school.
The key personnel involved in delivering this service include:
- Principal
- Deputy Principal
- Stiúrthóir
- Guidance Counsellors
- Caomhnóirí
- Class Tutors
Le bheith éifeachtach caithfear é seo a dhéanamh ar bhealach soiléir chun ligean do na daltaí forbairt tríd an ógántacht agus foghlaim conas déileáil le gach gné dá bhforbairt phearsanta. Tá sé mar aidhm ag Treoir agus Comhairleoireacht i gColáiste Pobail Bhaile Lotrail forbairt dhearfach gach dalta a éascú agus ag an am céanna meas a léiriú ar a bhféiniúlacht uathúil ar bhealach íogair. Múnlaítear féiniúlacht an ógánaigh agus iad ag idirghníomhú leis an domhan timpeall orthu. Baineann a saol scoile agus an saol sa bhaile leis seo. Trí leas a bhaint as comhairleoireacht phearsanta agus ghrúpa, spreagtar daltaí chun machnamh a dhéanamh ar an idirghníomhaíocht seo agus na luachanna agus na prionsabail a eascraíonn as chun iad a threorú ina saol laethúil.
To be effective this must be done in a clearly defined manner to allow the students to develop through adolescence and to learn to cope with all the facets of their personal development. Guidance and Counselling at Luttrellstown Community College aims to facilitate positive development of every student while at the same time respecting their individuality in a sensitive manner. The adolescent child’s identity is formed by their interaction with the world around them. This is made up of their school life and their home life. Through the help of personal and group counselling, students are encouraged to reflect on this interaction and what values and principles emerge from it to offer guidance in their daily lives.
