The series is relevant to the Northern Ireland Programmes of Study for History and English:
"Pupils should have opportunities to develop communication skills by re-telling stories about the past; for example, pupils should retell the main points of a legend, folktale or story in their own words, such as the legend of Finn McCool or Cú Chulainn."
Work in Geography, Art, Music, ICT and Cultural Heritage can also be incorporated with classes after the programmes.
Courage, loyalty, jealousy, greed, compassion, love and war .... all the big themes and more are here in ..... Cú Chulainn.
