Thinking about becoming a primary school teacher in Ireland, but unsure about the Irish requirements?
We’ve put together a free guide to help you understand your options clearly. If you want to apply for a Professional Master of Education in Primary Teaching, the Irish requirement can feel confusing at first. This guide breaks it down in simple language so you know what route might suit you best.
It’s especially useful if:
- You do not have a H4/C2 in Higher Level Leaving Cert Irish
- You are thinking about repeating Leaving Cert Irish as a mature student
- You are unsure if you should do the TEG B2 exam or repeat Leaving Certificate Irish.
- You want to apply to Hibernia or another primary teaching course
- You feel your Irish is weak and want to know the most realistic next step
Inside the guide, I explain the requirements for a PMEP, the various routes available if you do not currently meet the Irish requirements and how to be strategic when repeating Leaving Certificate Irish.
