This paper describes a community based Probation programme - Ceίm ar Ceίm (Step by Step) - in the Moyross community in Limerick city, which is designated a disadvantaged area. The target group identified are clients of the Probation & Welfare Service, early school leavers, and prisoners on temporary release. Current statistics in relation to early school leavers and unemployment in the Moyross area are summarised.
The paper outlines the target group, referral system, course content, qualifications obtainable, work experience and the day and evening programmes available at the project.
This paper gives a concise account of the Ceίm ar Ceίm Project and the daily programme that it offers participants and trainees. It is another valuable response to give early school leavers a second chance for education and training.
