The revision book includes examples of how scientists work and how scientific evidence can be gathered and evaluated. Clear guidelines are included to help students carry out laboratory investigations and scientific research, which are assessed during two CBAs during second and third year, to a high standard.

Junior Cycle Success adopts a topic-based approach to Science, with all topics presented in student-friendly language with appealing diagrams and images. Key exam topics are covered in detail, e.g., Energy, Cells, Climate Change, Atomic Structure, Cycles in Nature and Sustainability.
