With the full support of the Department of Education, Press Pass seeks to improve news literacy and critical thinking skills while helping students to develop a deeper understanding of news media and how it communicates about the world around them.Registered schools will receive access to digital newspapers, a Teacher’s Lesson Plan and a specially created student workbook. Students are encouraged to engage with the news journalism in the classroom, to analyse the content and writing styles,  and then to create their own original journalism, the best of which is entered into a national competition.The 2024 Press Pass programme is now running in over 300 schools nationwide. The deadline for entry to our Student Journalism is March 22nd 2024.For further details or to request access to our free resources, please contact Lisa Buckley at NewsBrands Ireland ( lbuckley@newsbrands.ie).Press PassHomePress Pass 2024 Key DatesEnterGalleryWinners 2021Awards CeremonyCategoriesCompetitionResources 2023An Initiative by:ConnectConnect and follow us on twitter.Web design by Shade StudioIf you would like more information about this year's initiative email Lisa Buckley lbuckley@newsbrands.ie Subscribe to Press Pass newsletter* indicates required Email Address * First Name Last Nameenenhttps://presspass.ie
