Teaching Council Subject Review

The Teaching Council is undertaking a review of all post-primary curricular subject requirements and the procedures to determine suitability of degree qualifications prior to entry onto programmes of initial teacher education. In this regard, the Council is circulating consultation documentation which sets out the Council’s proposals.
The Council is now seeking the observations and views of all interested parties prior to finalising the entry requirements. It is hoped to have the revised entry requirements approved by Council and published by mid-2012. Please note that the closing date for observations is the 31st January 2012.
