the country would shut! Surely we need to show some solidarity to our much needed colleagues - what do teachers have to say! They are an undercooked but vital part of our schools!
I'm not much for posting here but the lack of attention our secretaries & caretakers are getting around their strike action is crazy, schools remaining open completely undermines their position - basically says we can deal without ye all, if teachers striked in the morning
Our Leadership and Climate Action and Sustainable Development teams were delighted to have met our Phase One Schools this week. Looking forward to our next engagement face- to-face in November and December. @Oide_Ireland @0ide_Leadership.
Absolute nonsense and insulting at that particularly on World Teachers' Day. When you're in a hole it's best to stop digging. Maybe @NormaFoleyTD1 should lock her shovel in an electronic pouch. #edchatie#edshareie

@DrJohnODonoghue About time! Was always sniddly slagged by my NUI friends that they could vote in seanad and I could as I went to an IT - even though I held the same level degree as them! Always felt elitist and that I wasn't 'intelligent' enough to vote for law makers

Putting feelers out - looking to do a 'be a lab technician' short course for my next Transition Year group after Easter - the idea would be to give them the skills needed to work effectively in the lab - focusing on chem any ideas/resources? @ScietechSmith#chemed
Today students investigated how the surface of the ramp affects the distance travelled by the car when learning about friction. I opted for surfaces that were easy to pick up in mr price - bubble wrap, crepe paper & tin foil #jcscience#forces
@niallsmith91 Absolutely no need to bring contracts into it - I've not had a permanent post & I'm in teaching a few years now & there's many like me - to say as well that they don't want backlash towards their child if they dont get a present - do they think we do it for the presents & money!
📢Huge thank you to everyone who attended our Safer Internet Day Information Session this morning!
💡Lots of great ideas from schools, community groups, industry and stakeholders about how they can support the #SID2024 theme "Tech in Our World"!
