Class of 23

Our final year students began in Covid times and missed out on placement opportunities in their first year and had much of their second year on line. We welcomed them back to in person lectures and placement in third year. As our final year students, we take this opportunity to wish them every blessing as they anticipate their exam results and then hopefully move to register with the Teaching Council,  and seek their first teaching positions. We greatly look forward to hearing their news and staying connected with them over the years ahead.

Best wishes to:

Adam Hanlon, Alanna Ashe,

Andrew Arnopp,  Aoife Finnan

Arlene Kinch, Claire Shekleton

Emily Whittle, Glenn Jacob, Hannah Gilmer, Jennifer Hade, Karen Soden, Laura Mc Clean, Lauren Hunter, Robyn Griffin, Niamh Marriott, Erin Mollison, Ella O Rourke, Alannah Rothwell, Claudia Farrar, Anna Sanders, Eoghan Bateman, Niamh Merrick, Maire Kelly, and Lucy Condell.

Preparation of 4th years for job applications & interviews

by Revd Prof. Anne Lodge, Director of the Church of Ireland  Centre

On Monday 22nd May, the CIC was delighted to host the annual workshop by the IPPN for BEd4s on how to apply for their first teaching posts, tips for interview and advice on how to register on SubSeeker. CIC is very grateful to colleagues in the IPPN, in particular Pairic Clerkin and Maeve O’Mahony for their expert inputs and for the way in which they answered every question, both those pre-submitted by the students and those asked on the day.
