KCETB wish to acknowledge and celebrate one of our school's teachers - Jacqueline Sheil, of Borris College, recently named The Big IdeaCreativity Champion 2026.

Jacqueline brings creativity to life every day in her classroom, creating an environment where students are empowered to think independently, solve real-world problems, and develop the confidence to share their ideas.

A passionate advocate for The B!G Idea, she inspires not only her students but also her colleagues through her generosity, enthusiasm, and commitment to creative learning.

Adding to the celebrations, Borris College students also enjoyed outstanding success at The B!G Idea Awards 2026, with Freemove winning the Achieving Equality Award and Please Generate being named the Overall Winners.

Word Against the Word, a compelling one-man play by Keith Dunphy, offered a powerful and moving insight into the lived experience of dyslexia.

Through a unique blend of storytelling, humour, and references to Shakespeare, the performance brought audiences on an emotional and thought-provoking journey.

A particularly valuable aspect of the event was the interactive question-and-answer session with Keith, which allowed attendees to reflect further and engage directly with the themes of the play.

This event was made possible through a collaboration between KCETB, Adult Literacy for Life Kilkenny Carlow, WWETB Waterford and Wexford Education and Training Board and Kildare and Wicklow ETB Training Services, demonstrating a strong commitment to raising awareness and supporting adult learners.
