Junior Cycle Geography & Global Challenges

Think Global, Learn Local: Geography Resources for a Changing World

Looking for ways to bring global issues into your Junior Cycle Geography classroom? Global Education Time (GET) resources help students connect local experiences with global challenges through engaging, curriculum-aligned materials linked directly to our Teaching and Learning Units (TLUs). Our resources align with the key skills and statements of learning, and are curriculum linked to all three key strands of Junior Cycle Geography.

Explore Global Issues Through a Local Lense

Students investigate pressing global issues using real-world, relatable contexts. GET resources help learners understand how global trends affect their own communities—and how they can respond. Ideal for Classroom-Based Assessments, GET provides resources that your students can investigate including CBA 1: Geography in the News and CBA 2: Geography in Action.

These ready to use classroom activities include the 3 key topics for Junior Cycle Geography such as migration, climate change and global inequality. All worksheets and background materials are available in Irish, with clear guidance for integration into CBAs and daily lessons.

Support your students in becoming informed, active, and globally-minded citizens—with GET resources tailored for the Junior Cycle.
