The junior teacher programme is targeted at secondary students aged 15-19. A multipronged approach to building awareness of teaching as a profession among the targeted groups will be taken.

For example, Face to face interactions with partner schools and adocacy groups will focus on :

• Skills development
• Application support
• Academic support
• ITE taster courses
• Pathways to teaching
• Support and information for parents.

This programme will start with our partner schools:

• Bishopstown Community school
• Mayfield Community school
• Ursulines Blackrock
• Terence MacSwiney Community College
