What is the ‘Action Plan’ in LCVP?

The 'Action Plan' in the Leaving Certificate Vocational Programme (LCVP) serves as a structured outline that facilitates both portfolio development and work experience planning for students. This plan is essential as it helps students strategize their academic and career-related activities. By using the Action Plan, students can identify the steps needed to achieve their goals and reflect on their learning experiences, ensuring that they are effectively working towards fulfilling the requirements of their vocational education.

This structured approach allows students to organize their thoughts and actions systematically, which enhances their ability to pursue internships, work placements, and related projects. While it is true that self-evaluation, potential work placements, and summaries of class activities are significant components of the LCVP, they do not encompass the comprehensive framework provided by the Action Plan that guides overall development in both portfolio and work experiences.
